I believe I am still missing files that a virus destroyed. However, I had gotten this virus a few months back, and I have already got it checked that it was fully deleted. I had ran "sfc /scannow" very recently and repaired any missing files it could find. However, many programs are still not able to run ever since I got that virus. These programs that I know of so far is Final Fantasy 14 client and running ContentWatch/NetNanny. Upon running these programs, I receive the message "ffxivboot.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." or "ContentWatch.exe has encountered..." How can I recover any missing files that I lost from the virus so I can run these programs? Is there anything I can do to repair them or do I have to reformat my computer? I would greatly appreciate it if you respond as quickly as possible. Thanks!
