At the morning I downloaded and installed/scanned my PC with PrivaZer and he deleted some kind of files and now my whole PC is messed up, like when i click on google to open a new page it closes or when i try to open something i have to click like 1000 times and the scroll is essed up, everything is scrolling and sometimes when i type its essed like now. I restored my system and the same problem and now i reinstalled my pc (windows 8.1) and still ahve the problem what to do?

If you did a true clean install on of the OS then you should not be having anymore issues.

And what is this "PrivaZer" supposed to do? Is this one of those registry scanning things?
More trouble than they are worth.

Reinstall again. This time, do a full wipe of all the partitions.
Then install.

Do a clean install of your OS, and when you choose where to install it, format the hard drive completely before you install.

Usually deleting the partition will solve this. If you want to be extra safe, I have a guide to using DBAN, it basically overwrites the hdd info with i believe 0s or 1s. So basically erasing everything.

Yes, but why "2 disks"?

You have to boot from the install disk. Not run it from inside Windows.

Search for it on Google, that's where I learned how to install/reinstall Windows. Either way, it should be a problem with the OS. Also, as USAFRet asked, what is this program you mentioned even supposed to do? Give us a better explanation so we can evaluate the situation more completely.

well, if you are being traced this program deletes all traces from ur computer and everything even registry and i think the problem is because the program deleted some important registry files.(Btw, i do not recommend that program if u are a beginner like me, i did some advanced stuff and i * my pc)

yes, i do it from the disk but i never formatted it before, maybe because of that

Oh boy. I wouldn't recommend messing with the registry normally, I can see why you are having problems. Did you have an antivirus program such as Norton or McAfee? These 2 AVs tend to replace some registry and system files with their own and perhaps your third party program deleted them, leaving the system unstable?

 

[USAFRet]

Well...start over again. I doubt that software can survive a partition deletion and full reinstall.

i don't use antiviruses i don't trust hem anymore with their fake protection shields and stuff, i use only malwarebytes plus i don't download stuff

ok basically when i make a new hard drive i should format it first and then install right? plus will reinstalling my pc will affect my experience or the pc?

 

[Nextg_Rival]

Then the program is probably just very sloppy, since apparently it deletes important registry files for no reason, or maybe you've done something with custom options I guess? Anyway, as to antivirus programs I will just recommend Avast, since it's really good, free and overall pretty awesome. Regardless, a clean reinstall will definitely do the job - very few programs can withstand clean reinstalls and I strongly doubt yours could withstand one too.

When you make a new partition (you can't make a hard drive unless you own a factory 😀 ) it should give you the option to remove other partitions and merge them. That will definitely wipe anything on the hard disk. Reinstalling your PC might make it run faster if it's been 6 months or more since the last reinstall, since PCs tend to get bloated and become slower over time, so a clean reinstall will boost performance in some way at least.

I think that you should be able to do it later, during the reinstallation itself - you'll reach a point with a screen where you can manage the partitions - delete all old partitions and create a new one, then continue. This should do it as far as I know.

Yes, do that.
And don't use any more of those Registry cleaner things. More trouble than they are worth. As you have seen.
