Solved Virus made the windows folder a hidden system folder

[beecher]

I got a virus on my pc, and the windows foulder became a hidden system foulder
I then scanned it with norton, it removed the virus, and now it wants me to reboot, is it safe to reboot?

thanks, I rebooted and it still worked

sorry i don't understand what you mean by that? is your windows folder still a hidden folder?

 

[beecher]

the virus is gone now, and my computer still works perfectly fine, so everything is solved
what I mean by hidden system foulder is where it is only visible if you hit show hidden foulders, and uncheck hide hidden operating system files
