Windows Repairing System.



Windows Repairing System is a high-quality imitation of system security tool.
 Its user’s interface is quite attractive, but users familiar with common security solutions will find it copied from already existing (legitimate) tool. That would not be a big deal though, if  the software were actual system defender. Alas, components of  the fake security tool do not include any threat recognition software, neither by description of malware constituents nor by malware behavior. 
Users trusting Windows Repairing System are alarmed of threats which have not been actually detected as the counterfeit displays its misleading popups for self-advertising purposes and do not care about real viruses. That is why Windows Repairing System counterfeit is also classified as adware


Names mentioned in the adware popups are usually names of real threats. The names are borrowed, or rather stolen, from genuine security tools virus databases. Needless to say, the adware refers to such names groundlessly as it is a cheating program. Removal of Windows Repairing System is a prerequisite for system security.
Removal:

Kill malicious Processes from Task Manager: 
  • <random>.exe
 Location of the infection:
  1. %UserProfile%\AppData\[random].exe
  •  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\afwserv.exe "Debugger" = 'svchost.exe'
  •  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\avastsvc.exe "Debugger" = 'svchost.exe'
Although it is possible to manually remove Windows Repairing System, such activity can permanently damage your system if any mistakes are made in the process, as advanced spyware parasites are able to automatically repair themselves if not completely removed. Thus, manual spyware removal is recommended for experienced users only, such as IT specialists or highly qualified system administrators. For other users, we recommend  malware and spyware removal applications.

After removing all these files, restart your computer and the issue will be fixed. And don’t forget to do update your Security Software, check the Firewall Settings and the Operating System and finally do a full system scan with the Security Software.
