@SweetMae maybe copy it to mem stick to make more room on the hard drive but usually the problem is bigger than that and you gotta redo the whole hard drive to get rid of the annoying adware or bug playing with the system

@FurryFace I have always been able to get rid of them with erasing the hard drive.
