Hello, I'm fairly new to computers and i think i might have a virus, well actually i am pretty sure i do. I can't seem to open properties when i right click and i cant open my control panel, 2 error messages pop up, the same one. When i tried logging into a different user, i was able to open my control panel and right click properties but not in my administrative user. Can someone please help me with a detailed step by step way to get rid of this problem. thank you for your time =)
