When we are surfing the Internet, some malicious websites can exploit system loopholes and use system programs such as deltree.exe and Format.com to delete or format data on your computer. If we change the name of these dangerous programs on the computer in advance, we will avoid this dangerous situation in some programs. In the computer, this type of dangerous program has deltree.exe (delete subdirectories and file programs), Format.com (format disk Program), and so on. You can use the "Search" function to find it one by one and change it to another name. In this way, even if you do not care about these malicious website moves, these dangerous programs will not be run.
