Rendarius 0 Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 OK... So I had removed my trial version of ESET a couple months ago... or maybe it was just over a month... Anyways long story short... I was doing some maintenance on the cpu... and I used a program that does a lot of fixes that are basically just Microsoft Cmd line stuff etc... And one of the stupid moves I made was to Reset UAC and Permissions, which is what I think is the possible root cause of some of my problem... I tried a restore from a backup reg made before the changes were made.. and all the files and altered data is stored for restoration if need be... But it didnt work as I was hoping for... So I end up with this corrupted Bin... and well some other registry issues because I reset permissions on the system... and .... I have this folder I recovered out of the Bin... that I think came from program Files or Data... because the ones in AppData Local and Roaming are still there... I guess it could be from LocalLow but...regardless.... Since IM unsure Im leaving it on the desktop... I sw another person's post and mention of them not seeing the Recyle Bug in a long time... But I didnt check how old that post was... So Im wondering... Will ESET Cleanup Tool or whatever take care of this thing for me?... or should I reinstall... or TRY to reinstall considering the trail is over... and I stil have allthese files and folders... and quarantined items... I figured those would be removed with the program itself... And is there... or could you point me to the registry area(s) I need to go to to get rid of this file and others IF the Cleaner cant do the job ? What should I do?... Thx for your time and any help with this matter... Also I do know I have some disk volume errors...which Came to light when running maintenance.. So I think thats cause of most issues... but wondering if this is, or will also be a continuing issue to deal with when Im done... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rendarius 0 Posted June 20, 2019 Author Share Posted June 20, 2019 OK so everything is fine. Now Im just wondering about the original left over ESET files and Folders... Can I just manually delete them?.. Or should I use one of the ESET programs for removal of everything?.. Registry entries etc...? It wasnt me messing up the registry, as I restored and then re-applied changes a couple times to test and check... It was just a bad sector or section of the HD... So Its time I look into backing up the data on this HD to be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 5,231 Posted June 20, 2019 Administrators Share Posted June 20, 2019 Did you install ESET Online Scanner or a trial version of another product? Normally the product should uninstall completely. Also I would appreciate letting us know why you are uninstalling ESET. You merely wanted to fix the above mentioned issue and now you're returning to your AV that you may have a license for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
