This certainly has to be one of the best, most comprehensive videos on the subject. Thank you very much. I have two NAS's at home; a Synology and a QNAP. On the QNAP, and possibly the Synology, there are built in apps with which you can backup an entire desktop PC or laptop including the operating system and apps. That backup can be used to run a complete restore to those Windows computers. I'm not sure how cheap you can buy a 2 bay NAS and hard drive for today but, if you place a high enough value on your data and intact operating system, then this may be a viable insurance policy.
If the UEFI on a Windows PC is infected, throw the whole device away since most people won't bother updating their BIOS anyway except corporations and governments
Hey Ben, So how does Kaspersky play out with full disk encryption in place such as Bitlocker or Veracrypt? Will the tool be able to read the disk at all? I use Veracrypt as a FDE solution? Please advise.
Now most PCs have Bitlocker enabled. From my experience, if system drive is encrypted, Kaspersky Offline Scanner can't see it, even if Bitlocker is suspended before reboot. Looks like the only option is to decrypt the drive before Kaspersky Offline scan. Any thoughts on it? Thanks!
If I remove everything that's in my Downloads folder, will that also remove whatever I've installed with those downloads? That's probably a silly question to most here, but I'm a 73 year old who has no idea about computer technology. It's just that some of those downloads have been for programmes or applications, as well as PDF's, some of which I want to keep. Many thanks.
Removing the installation files from the Downloads folder will only remove these installation files. This will *not* remove any software that was installed by using these installation files. If you want to keep files that you download, such as some important PDFs, I recommend that you place them in other folders, such as Documents, Pictures, or Videos, depending on what they are. To better organize files, I recommend creating sub-folders. For example, if you have an important tax document for the 2023 tax year, you can place it in Documents > Taxes > 2023.
@@Eternal_Tech Thank you so much for responding to my silly query, and by clarifying it so succinctly. That's a great help for me to now re-organise the PDF's, as well as deleting the many downloads I no longer need. I appreciate your kindness. Stay safe and well, wherever you are.
Now days if I ever got anything nasty, the safest way to deal with it is a clean install of windows. If you have not done a backup in awhile you can image the drive first and just scan anything you go to pull out of the image. Also mark the image as infected so you know if you pull data off it later on. Reinstall from a clean source. It's what I do anyways. Find windows runs better if you do a clean install every so often anyways. It's one of those things you don't realize how much faster a clean install is until you do it years later.
Hi, can u pls make a video on how can I remove the restricted BIOS? I have a laptop where BIOS features (Mosrt of the features) are locked and when I go to BIOS, there are very limited / few features are visible. Is there any way I can put the normal BIOS on my laptop?
Hmm Brian I used the Kaspersky rescue disk a long time ago and I didn't find it that complicated and frankly mate I would not know what was malware using it now. I do have ESET Ultimate and Smart Security on my machines now and am just using it now so do I need the other apps you have shown??
Used this Kaspersky tool and the malware that is affecting my Windows 10 OS prevented this program from running. So I was unable to do anything. I'm looking to use another antimalware program that is bootable from a USB drive that is not affected by the malware, probably rootkit, that is on my internal hard drive. Any suggestion of another USB bootable antimalware program, which is reputable, would be appreciated.
Some USB sticks have a "lock" slider on them. So, using a brand new USB stick, once you have the Kaspersky app installed ( which you should do on a different, clean PC), then slide the lock on so nothing more can be written to it.
Make a video about restoring TH-cam pages to the old/previous layout. There is an extension some recommended, but it does not seem to function always, perhaps you know of a different way. This new layout is extremely annoying and very visually intrusive.
When you start a video with Kaspersky who is spying for Russian FSB and all its products are banned in the US...and it is also banned from usage in any UK government organization

Hello!!. Is it possible to use with ventoy? Thanks from Spain
Has Microsoft Defender Offline scan ever removed any nasty malware from your experience? Many thanks!

Never used that kaspersky tool but looks good.
Good video as always
Thanks 👍
Kaspersky is the best

But Bitlocker is Windows 11 Pro exclusive

You are so welcome
Many thanks, Ben, as that's very helpful and detailed information. Stay well.

Any time!
Do you need to disable Secure Boot when booting Kaspersky from a Flash Drive?
Shouldn't have to unless you're having issues booting from USB
Nice video, does the Kaspersky .ISO run on Ventoy?
Yes it does
Thanks a lot, all the best to your channel from the Netherlands 😊
Thank you for all information! Great video! I have bitdefender, is it good for my windows 10?
awsome video can you do a video that show other ways of doing it?

what if the malware infects any usb sticks which are inserted?

Please make video on car AC and it's maintenance.
Wouldn't fastboot hinder the rescue disc? Unless they changed it
boots just fine
@@Britec09 Thanks Brian, Great video.
When or how are we going to know your approach on LogoFAIL ???

i think if you are infected the best thing you do is to disconnect from wifi and use tron script ❤
Can a antivirus rescue disk makes a computer unbootable ?
how about running tron script???
diskpart or parted
You did the video eight years ago
👍👍

Yup, I went to download it, and all DL's are banned in the USA.
Kaspersky is ban in usa
