Can windiff find corrupted files install#

If you rename a dozen folders & the GOTD works, you just have to narrow it down to which folder, which will tell you which app. Renaming or moving program folders while in safe mode should disable whatever's inside those folders. It's not foolproof, but folder dates can show you when software was changed or installed. Your Windows Update history will let you pinpoint what updates were installed about the time GOTD offers broke, so you can uninstall them.

I could be totally wrong, but if Kaspersky worked, then it didn't, & fresh Kaspersky installs in virgin Windows work, it's possible that an update between then and now caused the problem, & neither updating nor uninstalling Kaspersky got rid of it.

Then you could install the latest version & see what happened - if it didn't work you could optionally make a 3rd backup, & then restore that 2nd backup & install another brand, if only as a test. I would suggest maybe performing a disk/partition image backup, downloading the current version of IS along with the removal tool, uninstalling IS, using the tool to get rid of leftovers, & backing up again. Using Google I found that Kaspersky has a tool to completely remove their software. I had the same problem of corrupt file etc. I am running Kaspersky KIS but when I was trying to figure this out, I was thinking maybe this was a part of the issue and I actually uninstalled it and put AVG on for awhile.
