I am not very computer savy. So far I have not been able to figure out how to do that. Step by step instructions might be in order. Thanks. I will keep trying in the mean time.

Update:

I think I figured it out...........it says..............File not found.

I have been able to get to registry editor (regedit) then I clicked on "file" at that point I have some options to pick from, such as, Import or Export and a few others that don't seem to be what I want. I started watching the video, she talks very fast. The very first step she says to click on Win+run short cut key ????? I see a key with the windows symbol on it. Is this the correct key to push ? Like I said I need clear, detailed step by step instructions.
Something like this:

I am still struggling with this. I get to the registry editor in a different way than the fast talking lady in the video does, but I get there. On both of my laptops it does NOT look like what the video lady had....which is a page with many listings on the far left. All I have are 5 similar looking lines all of which say HKEY this and HKEY that, they all start with HKEY. Nothing else on that page or screen. It does have the

File Edit Favorites Help options on the far top left. Nothing else except the 5 HKEY messages down the far left side. HELP !!!

To see if the string "ofd.vbs" is in your Windows 10's Registry:
  1. Tap [Winkey], type in:
    regedit
  2. and either click "Registry"
  3. or click "Open"

  4. Click "Yes"
    Image

    --
    When regedit opens
    Image

    --
  5. Click "Edit" "Find" (or press [Ctrl][F])
    Image

    --
  6. Type in:
    ofd.vbs
    and click "Find Next"
    Image

To see if there are more than one "ofd.vbs" you can press the [F3] function key to continue to the next one.

First I got a window that said searching the Registry. Then after 45 sec or so I get window that says

Finished Searching Through the registry. And in the lower right part of that window an OK prompt. I waited quite a while maybe 2 minutes then click The finished searching box went away immed and left me with the Registry Editior page again. Nothing else happened. No other messages

Simply means that it did not find the string ("ofd.vbs") in the Windows Registry. If it had, it would have stopped at the first instance waiting for you to either simply note what it found, edit it, move on to the next instance or exit the Registry Editor.

Next, use File Explorer to search for the same file on all of your drives. Press [WinKey][E] to load File Explorer, click "This PC" on the left, click which drive to search, then up in the Search box, type in ofd.vbs and press [Enter]. Note that this may also take a while dependent on the speed of your computer, the number of files on the drive selected as well as the speed of that drive

Let us know what you find ...
