You are facing strange problems on your computer and suspect it to be a virus issue. You have antivirus software installed and when the computer is scanned, it does not reveal any viruses.

Which of the following should you do to fix this problem?
  1. Reinstall the antivirus software.
  2. Try the Last Known Good Configuration and run a virus scan.
  3. Update the virus definitions of your antivirus software.
  4. Run the chkdsk command.
Explanation
Answer - C - You should update your virus definitions and scan the computer.

Key Takeaway: Many times a known virus issue will not be resolved because of outdated virus definitions. An original copy of the antivirus will receive periodic updates from the software developer to update the virus definitions. These updated virus definitions include detection and quarantine patterns for the latest viruses.
