Solved Registry bug? Help please

[Greenboaa]

Good people of Windows7 forum,

I hit something in CMD PROMT after watching a video on how to
supposedly "Remove a virus without a scanner".

I know that was a stupid move; forgive me a was lil drunk at that time.

Every time I start my computer I get a msg in notepad coming up saying:

[.ShellClassInfo]
LocalizedResourceName=@%SystemRoot%\system32\shell32.dll,-21787\

It also appears in every document folder now.

Virus scanning does not remove this or make it go away.

Please help, as this is annoying.

Notepad Starts With "[.ShellClassInfo] LocalizedResourceName=@%SystemRoot%\System32\Shell32.dll,-21787" When You Start Your Computer

Welcome
If you truly did not have a virus try a system restore from a few days before the problem.
