It Worked!!

I was able to run disk clean up.

After entering the command "sfc /scannow"  I did get a message (down below) saying that there were some corrupt files but I am assuming that this is not much of an issue.  I tried to view them but was unable to do so.

I think I still want to try the re-sizing of shadow storage as well.  What do you think about me trying this (from my earlier post)?

Thought about typing in:vssadmin Resize ShadowStorage /For=C: /On=D: /MaxSize=900MB (basically exchanging a D for the C in howtogeek's directions, but thought I'd better check with you first, since this is waaaaay outside of my comfort zone.)


Thanks for your help!

The ones that were reported as unrepairable are generally ini files and are of no import

To resize the storage you do not need to use a command line

Go to the restore properties page and use the slider to set the value

Hey tiki310,

I'm glad your visualbee issue is finally resolved. Although, visualbee is not really a malware, the toolbar is more on the lines of adware. Visualbee itself is a plugin for MS Powerpoint, where you can automate the design of your presentation.

The toolbar may be slightly difficult to uninstall, but this can be made much easier in the future by referring to the link: http://www.visualbee.com/uninstall-visualbee

Hope you dont encounter the same issue again.

Anna.
