linux machines macs and even  phones from threats large and small  with the ability to detect and stop even a human  hacker on your network  bit more       advanced so we'll go ahead and go here  you'll see it right here pinned by the moderators  and it may look different when you get it  because this is regularly updated.  

The version we're looking at right now is 12.0.2  it was updated on 328 2022 but this is updated,regularly sometimes every week so don't worry  if it's a different version it's going to be  the same process no matter  if you're having  connectivity problems or bandwidth issues and  you want to prefer to do a torrent i'm going 

to go ahead and download the exe once it's done  downloading we're not going to open it through the  browser we're going to go to the file explorer  and then   navigate to downloads and as long as.

  

You haven't changed the default download location  within your browser it's going to default to right  here the icon here has a 7-zip icon because i use  7-zip but if you don't use 7-zip it'll probably be  just a white square the icon is not important just  make sure you have tron it'll have the version.  It's on the desktop okay it's over here and  then next we're going to right click on it  and run it as administrator this is going to  extract all the tools within this script package so that we can do everything we need to do and  if you don't see it right away right click on the desktop and click refresh and it'll be a tron  folder and integrity verification these are the  two folders that's all we need within tron folder  and then resources we have all the different parts  of the script and we're going to you're going  to be able to use just part of it or all of it .

Now we have a total of 10 folders here and you'll  be able to skip and choose which of these you want  to do and i'll go through all the steps with you  first one is functions we're not going to do cover. 

 First we're going to start with stage  0 prep now stage 2 prep. where we are right now it's also going to run,  all of the root kit scanners if you don't know  what a root kit is it's a very hard to detect  system level infection which can oftentimes be  persistent and they're they're really the most  dangerous out there other than ransomware so you  definitely want to run this stage. 

You might just say stage 0 prep we're going to  right click on it and then run as administrator ,then this window is going to pop up and we're  going to be able to see everything it does  it's creating a restore point just like  i showed you now if you want to recover  your machine back to a restore point at a later  time you will go right over here to the search  and just type create a restore point it'll come  right here and then you'll click system restore  and then you'll see a recommended restore  or you can choose a different restore point  we can click next and it says tron  pre-run checkpoint this is the one that  tron just created that we just created if  you click that and then go next next next  it's going to take your computer back in time  exactly the way it was before you run the script  so that's the main reason why we do the prep and  in here it is launching our kill now our kill as  i wright in the other article it's going to look for  any malware or malicious tasks that are running in  the background and it's going to kill them that  way the scanners can detect them properly, if at any time you suspect that the script may be  stalled, just be patient the best thing you can  do is leave it alone but if you do think that it  is stalled just click inside the console window  and hit space bar and if it was stalled you'll  see a bunch of text start moving after that everything here is normal normal it's doing  a full check and now it's starting to run mcafee 

stinger cavity stinger looks for a particular  type of root kit and it's pretty effective   i'm not a big fan of all mcafee products but this  standalone tool is pretty effective and poof the  window disappeared the window out automatically  closes when it finishes unlike the automated tron  so it's not going to give us any kind of  indication of the results i'll show you at the  end how to check the logs to see the results of  the test but at this point you're good to go it's  done we can go to the next step so we're gonna go  back up here to the resources folder where we were and we're gonna go to stage one temp clean now  stage one temp clean is going to clear your temp  files ssl cache windows update cache basically all  of the temporarily downloaded garbage that windows  may or may not get to it's supposed to delete it  on a time basis but if you're having space issues 

You need to recover some space now this is a good  step this is not required for the whole process  but it's it's a good one and but it's totally  optional you don't have to do this one you can  skip this if you uh don't need to clear any  space go ahead and right click and run it  as administrator and it's going to go ahead and  launch it now i know some of you guys noticed that  there's ccleaner involved this is running the old  version before there was a problem with nc cleaner  i don't know if cleaners gotten any better but  there was an issue with a few versions being a  bit of a privacy issue and not being that  trustworthy but it's not doing a big registry  clean or anything it's mostly using the  temp file because it's super easy to use  ccleaner within a script and again when the  windows close it means it's done you might  see more showing up on your screen i'm doing this  on a custom computer so we can save some time but  it may take 20 minutes for you but then after  it's done it'll do the same thing in close  after that we can go back to the resources folder  and then we can go to stage 2 to bloat another optional one but it is highly recommended however  you want to consider some things that i'll go over, now right now what it's doing is it's comparing  the guid list against seven hundred and seven  thousand one hundred and fourteen black listed  entries so they have a list of the known junkware  applications and it's looking for any of those  so things like candy crush and the stuff that  comes on hp computers that tries to sell you  things trials of microsoft office the ones  ,

That just try to sell you office it's looking  for all those it's going to remove toolbars  any type of junk that  typically comes with computers. it really depends on  your system if you have a mechanical hard disk  drive as your system drive it could be on  the longer side and you'll right click here  and then run as administrator versus going  to it already has malwarebytes on my system  but it's installing malwarebytes on your  system and you'll see it here on your  desktop somewhere this part you do have to  babysit it and you'll have to click scan now and over here it's running kaspersky  virus removal tool it's also going to run  sofos and a couple other virus removers  and that's why it's so effective is  tron runs literally at least one type of every  type of scanner to cover all the different types  of threats so this will go through it'll  tell you all the things that it's detected 

and then we can also review it in c colon forward  slash logs which i'll show you at the very end  i'm not going to sit here and wait for it.if it doesn't already is collecting data on everything  you do online and building a profile on you for  financial gain and you don't see a penny of it  take back your privacy and take back control  over your connected life by using a reliable vpn  unsecured websites and public wi-fi's are the  easiest ways hackers can wreak havoc in your lives but if you have nor dpn with this military-grade  encryption lightning fast speed and over 5000  servers worldwide you can browse safely and  privately nordvpn also has state-of-the-art  dedicated peer-to-peer servers to protect your  usage from your isp as well as big brother and  with advanced obfuscation servers you can access  blocked websites or even streaming services such as netflix hulu and more anywhere in the world  nordvpn has a strict no logs policy  in this it's just automated all you really have  to do is right click here and run as administrator   

compare your computer's installation your windows  installation with what microsoft windows update  has and if any of the the packages or aspects of  it need to be replaced because they're corrupted,  it'll automatically download them from microsoft  windows update and replace it on your computer .

So very powerful tool this can often fix a  lot of windows update errors where if you ,your machine lost power and shut down during a  critical windows update this can often fix it  all right and then once the dism is done it  says if we have any issues it said no image  corruption detected that's great now it's  running an sfc an sfc or system file checker is literally checking everything in system 32 all  your system files that are critical for windows  and it's going to automatically repair those  as well it has a very high success rate and  90 percent of the times when i get a customer's ,  i had a weird restart my machine crashed i guess  i was doing way too much at the same time during  some some virus removals and it just restarted the  machine and when i rebooted the machine my start  menu wouldn't open up and it was saying permission  issues i just opened up command prompt and ran the  sfc that it's running right now and fixed it right  away after it's done here if it has any errors  it'll say that if you reboot it'll fix it during  restart sometimes it may say it couldn't fix it  but it'll often give you a link to where you can  download the replacement files that are missing  all right now it's doing some check disks and this  is checking the integrity of your system drive if  there's been any corruptions a lot of corruptions  can happen during uh bad restarts so and then now  it's also did some tweaks it closed really  fast. every six months there's a feature  update and says you've got to install it now .

I can defer them indefinitely because i've  controlled it here in oh shut up 10. what  tron did during this last step was opened this and  went to actions and only recommended settings only  recommended settings means it's going to tweak the  most reasonable privacy settings and quality  of life changes without making anything not work  you can actually download this for free through  some things not work right because they can't  communicate out um and then apply all settings  just makes it makes you break windows i mean it'll  still work it's just not a whole lot can talk out,  now stage seven wrap up this one's optional but  this one's going to prepare the logs all nice  it's going to reset the power settings that  they've been messed with and they're not on  they're corrupted that's going to re-enable screen  saver if you have that so basically some final fixes that might have been messed up by malware or  system corruption but this one's totally optional  and here it's also uninstalling malwarebytes which  is nice that way i don't have to uninstall it,  myself okay and then it's done we can go down and  then custom scripts this one is a text document, 

Which will show you all the things about doing  custom scripts which you would do it back up here  in functions now manual tools we're not going  to use these today but i want to show you these  because some of them are nice now first  tron reset tool if you were over here  changing things you can reset them by running the  tron reset tool services repair is nice if you  have some kind of services issue in services.exe  this is a safe mode mode boot selector this  is just a little batch file that lets you  select the boot up process for your next boot  if you don't know how to boot to safe  mode this is an easy way to do it  remote support reboot config okay  this is a little bit server related  net adapter repair um if you're having problems  with your wi-fi adapter that's kind of an old  thing i wouldn't really do that on windows 10 or  11. uh combo fix this will bring some nostalgia to 

uh people that are tech savvy or people in in our  field.if you're on  windows 10 or 11 don't use it it's it's kind of a  scorched earth method of repairing windows so  you have just as much chance of destroying your operating system as you do of fixing it and it's  not supported for windows 10 or 11 so it's most likely either going to not work right or break  something blue screen view this will help you view  any blue those you know those stop codes you  get when you get a blue screen of death auto  runs is i'm you still have some fake application  that has a pop-up that can't be uninstalled  or something that's not technically a virus but  it's acting you know maliciously it doesn't want  to obey you then it's probably adware which  is a semi harmful semi maybe harmless probably  annoying application that is there to generate  ad revenue for the the authors adware cleaner  is made by malwarebytes and it specifically  goes after um after adware and you just run the  scan and it'll remove that adword for you it's  really good at removing crypto miners as welland then adss spy this was another great program  back in the day i don't recommend you use this  but you can check what the author authors say  about them here but what they do and that stage  9 manual tools now you're done great job i'm  going to show you how we can check the logs and  see everything that's been done we're going to go  into c colon as look the local disk c under file  explorer then logs and under tron folder and then  we can go ahead and check what's been quarantined  our backups raw logs okay we can check all  the stuff here but we can go to the summary  tron remove files trying to root programs if  you're wondering if something got removed during  de-bloat check right here no programs are removed  run remove files but yours will vary but this will  be your information .
