I have installed new avast! 4.7 Professional and since then, it found over 65 viruses, worms, malwares, etc. Some of which are duplicates and thankfully have never been activated. I thought something was fishy when my pc was running way too much RAM than what it usually called for. I always trusted Symantec Norton, but after uninstalling and installing avast! made me realize who is really ontop of things.
My question concerns the DATA/moved folder. I have 3,705 files in there and don't know how they got there. After I ran the deep scan on all 3 of my HDD's, it popped up a window telling that there were over 7,000+ files that could not be accessed and wanted to know what I wanted to do with them. I don't think that I selected the Move Files option, but rather cancelled it out. The next thing I knew was it started moving ALL the 7,000+ files. I had no way of stopping it, so I reverted to quickly truning off my pc.
Some of the files consist of registry keys, and other misc. files. Ever since that problem occurred, I've had a few problems with certain applications such as Roxio Media Creator, PlexTool and neither one of my CD/DVD ROM's are found in My Computer. My pc still runs pretty smoothly, I've cleaned my registry and I even reverted back to a previous restore point, but still have no ROM's. I tried rolling back the driver and troubleshooting it, but nothing helps.
How can I move the files back to where they belong? It did not give me an edit option to "undo move" like with other folders.
