    Please set Windows 7 to show both hidden and system files and folders so that you can find specific files to delete.
    1. Click Start and navigate to Control Panel.
    2. On Appearance and Personalization > Folder Options > Show hidden files and folders.
    3. On the View tab, uncheck the following:
      • Hide file extensions for known file types
      • Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)
    4. Click Yes on the warning message.
    5. Under Hidden files and folders, check Show hidden files, folders, and drives.
    6. Click Apply to All Folders.
    7. Click OK.
    Note: I will give you instructions for hiding them again once your system seems clean.

    We need to do a quick check.
    • Go to 'VirusTotal'.
    • Click Browse.
    • Copy and paste the exact file name(s) in bold (if there are more than one file listed, please open multiple tabs) to the address bar located on top of the new window that appeared:
      • C:\Windows\SysWow64\stopSvc.bat
        C:\Windows\SysWow64\cmdVBS.vbs
    • Click Open > Send File.
    • Copy and paste back the link(s) to the result(s) once VirusTotal has finished scanning the file.
