You can’t
You can not say start from scratch when you don’t want to format the disk. Trust me you will be waisting more time trying to remove the virus only, and at the end there will be some annoying staffleft there. Just as you said start from the scratch. Format the drive and Install a brand new windows.
No. You’d need to reinstall the OS.
No not possible. Either erase or don’t erase…………..
No.
Not unless you know exactly where the virus is located on your computer. But if you knew that, you could just delete it couldn’t you?
The only sure fire way to rid yourself of the virus is to wipe the drive clean and start over. This is assuming that you’d exhausted all anti-virus software solutions. Virus’s are sneaky and can copy themselves anywhere on your hard drive. If it has embedded itself in your OS source code, saving the OS and then re-copying it will only restore the virus.
Sorry.
