The /u switch should uninstall CF and delete the files and folders it created.
No need to turn off AV or Firewall.

Good

Combofix uninstalled. I may run KAP KWS later tonight sometime. Can I delete the folder C:\ComboFix? It still exists after uninstalling Combofix.

Because of your choices in obtaining software programs I will no longer help you here in the Malware and Virus removal forum.

Your choices will just keep infecting your system over and over again and I am not a "personal malware removal option" to use. You make these choices, so you will have to live with the consequences.

The Administration and Staff at WindowsBBS does not condone the use of cracked or otherwise illegal software, which by your own admission via PM, you possess on your machine. This topic will now be closed.
