    System files are missing


    So I'm missing some system files, I'm wondering if anybody can be kind enough to help me out in repairing my PC, it starts but is severely slow I have attached the log of "HackThis" which shows me what is missing but how do I add them again? If this is the wrong section then can a mod please put it to the correct section :)

    Hi WhitelionX,

    Were you hit by malware??

    Anyway standard repair tools,
    Download and run KB947821- There are 2 versions, X86 for you

    then from an elevated command mode
    sfc /scannow


    Is your system reporting as non-genuine, the WAT/SPP are listed as missing

    pleasd run this tool as well, copy/paste the output

    Thank you for the reply it was due to a multitude of things trying to install on my PC with no thanks to thisisWIIIGET.exe, it came as a bundle which I was not aware of until it was too late. I think I have fully deleted it and the other nasties that came with. Thankfully my PC is still known as being genuine but it's horrendously slow. For now I'm downloading the KB947821 repair tools, have run sfc /scannow twice but it says there are no errors but I have to doubt that it's running like I'm using 256k ram when it's actually an 8GB ram PC lol. But for now I need to rest, I will let you know how it goes when I wake back up :)

    Hi

    ABSOLUTELY NO POINT in running 8GB ram, as its a 32bit system youll ONLY EVER get 3GB because of that.

    Hi Whitelion

    you must be watching Saints v Spurs then.

    Anyway can you also run this tool see if you got rid of all the dross
    Farbar Recovery Scan Tool Download

    post both logs.

    If its only using 256K it will be slow
    (suspect that relates to the graphics card not the system)

    Nah was watching Ajax vs Feyenoord and I'm running a 64 bit system, haven't had a 32 bit sysytem for years lol. I will try the farbar scan as well, I should mention that I said it feels like 256k and not necessarily is 256k lol. I found on another site that HijackThis is designed for 32bit computers and is old and outdated now :/ I also checked for "C:\Program Files (x86)\MiPony\Browser\IEContext.htm" but don't have it. Still running SFC at the moment :) SFC comes up clean again, running Farbar now. Whatever was wrong seems to have eventually righted itself

    Unless it was the KB file that finally fixed whatever was wrong?

    Meh it seems to have happened again, trying to use the KB again, seems to happen when I use Visual Studio 2017 and it's from Microsoft as well so it should be a legit copy, stuck on "Initializing installation" of the KB file this time round. I have noticed if I've got task manager open then things seem to work if I close it then things slow down or even stop This is getting beyong frustrating, I'll leave it for an hour to see if the KB works but I won't hold my breath

    Well the KB actually did what it was supposed to do but for now I'm seeing no difference, will be restarting my PC again after malwarebytes has finished, also uninstalled Avast being as Windows defender is also not running?

    Well I got defender running again, seems there was "exclusions" added which I did not add so I removed them and now running a quick scan first and a full scan afterwards, fingers crossed
