Formatting C but C doesn't get cleaned
Usually when I format my computer I install windows 7 on C so C gets cleaned, all programs and viruses removed but when I tried to do the same yesterday C still had all of it's files on windows.old so I am afraid that the formatting was ineffective and the viruses are still around.
When I entered windows.old I have found that it contained all of the previous files, also steam did not get deleted or moved at all. It stayed in C even after the formatting.
What am I doing wrong?
