About 30 virus infected files were deleted from my
computer. How do I find missing and corrupt files and
repair or replace them without re-installing the whole
program
 
Hi, Raul.

First, try the System File Checker. At the Run prompt, type: sfc /scannow

SFC will compare each WinXP operating system file with the "known good" copy
held in your on-disk cache and replace any missing or damaged ones. Have
your WinXP CD-ROM handy; SFC probably will need to see that.

I hope that works, because the "in-place upgrade" would likely take you half
a day. (See KB article 315341.)
