Find System32 and delete it immediately, it's a virus that will slowly steal all of your data and destroy your computer.

System32? Pretty sure that means the virus is in your program files and is taking your data.

Fine, let your files be corrupted until you can't even turn on your computer anymore.

Which will actually happen if you delete your System32, the software which runs everything including your boot system.

It's not funny anymore.

DONT DELETE SYSTEM 32
IF YOU DO YOUR COMPUTER WILL BREAK. @All comments above saying delete system 32 this is a not a joke if someone on roblox tells someone to delete system 32 is a wrongful thing to do and will result in ban possible Ip ban.


Best thing you can do is to find the exe file and delete it. Or just go to a computer store...

System32 is folder that contains many files, folders and system objects and with its removal could destroy your operating system. You seem to be dealing with what is called in the Malware world as Rogue or Scareware which often times locks your PC's Internet Browser, or other harmless products that come preinstalled on the PC for the Rogue to protect itself. Get a Anti-Virus or Anti-Malware Software. Though I can not give you direct links on the ROBLOX website, I do not believe there is a category in the terms of service to that prevents me from recommending third party software to aid in the removal of this infection. You may want to try Malwarebytes AntiMalware, or Hitman Pro. Just Google it.

Here are a couple Malware Removal people that may have a tutorial to solve your problem;

It doesn't need to be a .exe to be an executable, but it does need to be an executable for it to be a virus.

I didn't tell him to delete System32 and he shouldn't.

But if the source of the virus is embedded in his System32, he's skrewed.

"It doesn't need to be a .exe to be an executable, but it does need to be an executable for it to be a virus."

It doesn't need to be a executable to be a virus, in-fact it could be a .scr, or .com (Another form of executable file).

But some malware writers may try to hide the true extension of the file and change the icon. So say I had a supposed image file, all I see is the classic Windows Image Logo on the image, I double click the supposed image that says like image.jpg and my extensions aren't to be showing. I get a prompt, would I like to open the executable, and without forethought I press continue. And boom infected, because the supposed image was image.jpg.exe.

Why you saying delete System32, WHEN THE FOLDER IS LOCKED. IT CAN NOT BE DELETED UNLESS DONE BY THE SYSTEM ACCOUNT

If you don't know SYSTEM account that that's the account used to sign in to your account so like the Login screen

It's still an executable. It has and always will be an executable, but it's masked to be a different file type.
