Virus deleted my startup tabs from msconfig

TechSoltice_ · Jul 9, 2014

Ok so I got a nasty virus that disabled my Task Manager, my UAC, and I don't know what else, but I managed to remove it and re-enable Task Manager and UAC back again. But, I can't seem to find nothing on the msconfig Startup tab that I had enabled, only the disabled ones. I don't find the elantech thing for my touchpad, the sidebar.exe, and others. Please tell me what to do, I just want the sidebar.exe back on startup.

Virus name was Cybj.exe

Hopefully we can get this resolved for you.

Have you attempted a system restore to a point that's pre-infection?

KyleADunn :

Unfortunately, no. I've never made a restore point (mistake of mine)

TechSoltice_ :

"Try this:

1. Click Start
2. Type "CMD" without the quotes
3. Right click cmd.exe and select 'Run as Administrator'
4. In the command prompt the pops up, type the following:

Regsvr32 -u "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Sidebar\sbdrop.dll"
Regsvr32 -u "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Sidebar\wlsrvc.dll"
Regsvr32 atl.dll
Regsvr32 "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Sidebar\sbdrop.dll"
Regsvr32 "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Sidebar\wlsrvc.dll"

5. Reboot the computer.
See if this brings back your sidebar."

I hope this helps!
