For some users, this can really mess up their browsing especially if they don't realize what deleting all their cookies involves. Deleting them CAN be good, but they need to be aware of the effect, as it will be very visible to them as soon as they try and browse anywhere and some users will wonder what is wrong, think something is broken, etc.

@ken-in-KY6 сағат бұрын
Originally these software companies (Windows, Norton Anti Virus, Malwarebytes etc.) sold hard copies (floppy discs CD, DVD) of their products giving the user free updates. They changed all of that to downloading, and increased pricing for additional levels of protection which eventually ended with 12 monthly payments. Today some offer yearly plans which will cost you a pretty penny.
@ken-in-KY6 сағат бұрын
If you have a mortgage, pay rent, and have children (most of us do) consider all of the monthly costs included in those alone then add the other necessities (water, electric, or gas, or both, plus auto, car, etc.) it's a huge chunk of change out of pocket every single month. Then add music, movies etc. Many of us are beginning to cut out cable tv, for internet services which are now increasing their prices, but they're also throwing advertising (that we all hate) into the mix just to charge us more to eliminate it all. Sooner or later all of these aforementioned companies will have to change how they operate to stay in business. It all just costs too much money for many people.

Scott, your videos are always so helpful, thank you. A question about the Windows ISO file. If there comes a day when we wish to use it when Windows 10 is no longer available from Microsoft, how does this ISO version of Windows 10 get updated? It will not be the latest version, and when Microsoft pulls the plug on it, how long will they support at least the last update of the version? Will they keep the update procedure on their site even though Windows 10 is no longer supported? Also, do they ever update the ISO itself, or do they rely solely on their site to update it once it is installed?

RogueKiller question please.... When I close RogueKiller with its window's close button, the RK icon remains in the system tray. From that icon of course I can right click and exit it completely, or reopen it. Alternatively I can completely exit it by clicking the "exit door" button in the RK main screen. But is there any way to completely exit the program by ONLY clicking its window's close button? If not, I guess that's ok but I don't understand the state that the program is in after hitting the window close button (i.e., while the RK window is closed but the icon is still in the system tray). I'm using the free version so it's definitely not doing any real-time protection. Is it doing anything at all? If not, why is the system tray icon still there? Similar behaviour with MalwareBytes, except to exit completely from the system tray icon, it triggers UAC. Plus MWB does not have an "exit door" button like RK does, AFAIK. This is not really important to me but I'm trying to setup a new PC for non-savvy user and trying to simplify usage as much as possible.

Not a bad idea, but I was focused on malware removal. Most malware doesn't "install", hence the reason for not Including programs like BCU and Revo 👍

This is the order I repair infected computers. You can go straight to TronScript if you want. I needed to explain, as stated in the video, the varied levels of lethality 👍

I have covered that in many other videos. It isn’t a malware tool so it didn’t get included in this video.

CCleaner, while good for temp file deletion, has had many reported issues with hidden spyware. Nothing you can do in CCleaner than you can easily do from Windows. I used to use it, but I no longer recommend it 👍
