    • On the PC you will be doing antivirus on, install the appropriate software. If the PC with malware does not turn on, install on a different one to do anti-virus.

    • Malwarebytes is great anti-virus software. Go to the website and install it for free.

    • Glarysoft Malware hunter is also good. Their website is here.

    • Other free anti-malware works too, but these are my favorites.

    • This step only applies to PCs that do not boot. If the PC with malware runs, then install the software directly onto it.

    • Because assembly of different laptops and PCs vary so much, you will have to figure out or find a guide to remove your drive.

    • This step also only applies to PCs that don't boot.

    • If your non-infected PC is a desktop, you may unplug the optical drive and plug the connections into the HDD or SSD. If it is a laptop, you will need a SATA to USB adapter.

    • Shut down your desktop before unplugging the DVD drive and attaching the HDD.

    • Once you've installed the necessary programs and (if applicable) connected you're infected drive to you PC, you are ready to be the doctor.

    • Run Malwarebytes.

    • Windows defender comes preinstalled with Windows. Use that also.

changed “boot” to “turn on” because it would make more sense to the people who read this article, as they could be the much less computer-savvy people
