1PW Posted March 16, 2017 ID:1108996 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Hello @AneiDoru and If you are referring to the %SystemRoot%\SysWoW64 directory, it is an integral part of the Windows OS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WoW64 and it should never be deleted. However, if you believe your system is infected, malware removal actions are not permitted in this sub-forum and I recommend following the advice from the topic: Available Assistance for Possibly Infected Computers and have one of the Malware Removal Experts assist you with your issue. If, as recommended, you do open a topic in Malware Removal Help, please make reference to this thread. If you would like to get off to a very fast start, the Malware Removal Experts would appreciate it if you would also attach (not compress/copy/paste) both the FRST.txt and the Addition.txt output diagnostic reports from only Log Set 1 into your new topic. Please do not alter any pre-configured FRST categories as the default settings are well suited for malware removal actions. Thank you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
