    ComboFix problems for legitimate files being deleted

    AS my system was infected with a virus and hence i installed the Combofix then i ran the combofix application as soon as i finished with the installation procedure. It prompted me to delete certain files so i clicked yes considering that the infection will be removed after deleting the files but after the deletion when i restarted my system a message box appeared that some files are missing. Please suggest a suitable resolution for legitimate files being deleted by combofix

    It has been specified a number of times that the combofix application should be used under the guidance of a tech personnel. I would advice you to get combofix application removed right now. Since if you use it without any sort of guidance you will never be benefited although you can get a lot more errors on your system.
