Is it possible to permanently remove the factory installed SCRs from my
laptop.. I've tried but they keep returning...
Thanks

The built-in screensavers are protected by Windows File Protection. To get rid of the default screensavers, first delete the .scr files present in the "%windir%\system32\dllcache" folder. Then delete the .scr files from teh system32 folder.

Be sure to backup the files to a safe location in case you need it again.
