Retired IT guy here. Excellent video on the tools we use, I’ve taught my clients to use, and the average layman can use too. Be forewarned… Geek Squad isn’t going to be happy about this video. But I don’t consider that a bad thing. ;-)

[orlandogonzalez]

I watched with some caution. I downloaded all five tools. I used the first four tools. My buggy windows 10 Dell desktop monitor got cleaned up. My Microsoft Edge has stopped crashing multiply times a day every day. I couldn't get rid of nasty browser extensions. They are gone!!! This works!!!

[ElegantSolutions]

With my 55 years of IT experience, I approve of you recommendations. Very clear presentation!

[saintuk]

Just a note - for those that still think defragging helps them. Do not defrag your drives if they are ssds!!

[johnbowles]

Thank you Scott, from an old man who lives in the UK, your videos are always very useful and a lifesaver. 👍😎

[dethmetl]

Awesome video! Liked, Subscribed, & Shared. As a retired ITSC Submarines of 20 years, I must say this is the best video in this area I've seen so far. You explained in such a way that any one at ANY computer knowledge level. In such instances I can't help someone with their computer myself, your channel will be Highly recommended by me!

[georgevavoulis]

As someone who knows nothing about computers your channel really helps
Thanks

[kjones]

Thanks Scott! I'm an old former computer repair technician myself, and I appreciate you updating me on the latest free malware diagnostic and removal software currently available.

[DannyPepprs]

56 year old Windows user, thanks to this guy, he is the obi wan of fixing windows

[BWGPEI]

Haven't got many windows boxes left, but really appreciate the help you've shown us. may you live long and prosper!

[warpspeedpower]

The big caveat is that when you have a Windows installation that is heavily infested with malware and/or viruses, plus a screwed up registry and corrupt files, the time required to fix these problems (which in most cases is never 100% successful) far exceeds the time required to back up all of the data, perform a clean installation, and restore the data. I've wasted an enormous amount of time in the past trying to clean out heavily compromised systems. I've also been doing this for over 30 years and have encountered such issues hundreds of times. 90% of the time (when it's really bad) I end up doing the backups, re-installation and restoring of data.This also gives you the opportunity to start with a clean slate, put in place a proper setup with proper security, teach the user proper maintenance, and also teach them how to avoid the same mistakes. You of course need a user who is receptive to learning and following what you've taught them. The best defence is being proactive and not allowing such a mess to happen in the first place. Your video is nonetheless fantastic and you've presented some software that I have not yet used. These will be added to my tool chest.

WOW. You were kind enough to share so much good & useful information that it took me a long time to finish it. Why did it take me so long to watch all of it? Because I kept stopping to send links to this video to my friends, etc. GREAT help. Cannot thank you enough. Please keep up the great work you are doing here.

[fillipe]

I'm not a IT guy, but always been playing it safe and learning some stuff, even though my PC is fine, this video is really useful that I'm saving it as favorite. Thanks!

[jaytol]

WOW! did this it was the hitman pro that sorted my computer out well happy its flying again and no adverts what a bonus.

[Whaler_]

Overall good video. My one criticism, warn users about cookies. Malwarebytes and others will want to remove all the cookies it finds. For some users, this can really mess up their browsing especially if they don't realize what deleting all their cookies involves. Deleting them CAN be good, but they need to be aware of the effect, as it will be very visible to them as soon as they try and browse anywhere and some users will wonder what is wrong, think something is broken, etc.

[Harfinou]

From Bleeping, you can add ADWcleaner also.

[FatherOfTheParty]

Great run through on some of the newer tools. Had a recent take over attempt on my home machine and thought I had everything covered but ran the tools anyway. Didn't find any additional problems but gave some needed peace of mind. Thanks!

[explorateer]

There are more settings like choosing which hard drive to scan and scanning for root kits that are available in the free Malwarebytes. Customize your scan.

[مقاطعمترجمة-شث]

I'm IT guy, and I was doing all these process you mentioned on the video since 20+ years ago, and to be honest, instead of waiting for these Malware software scanning the PC to come up with something, I just take a backup of the important file and browsers credentials, and fresh installation windows, many maintenance shops use costume made Windows ISO with all needed software pre-installed, Last note from myself, *I use Arch BTW*
