Autoruns Yellow Entries

SVSQUVSH opened this issue · comments

This step described in the cleanup section of the guide is problematic: "Remove all obsolete entries with a yellow label and run with C:\bin\NSudo.exe if you encounter any permission errors".

Some entries with a yellow color are important system files and should not be removed or disabled. This can cause system instability.

Example: wow64cpu.dll

It will show as a yellow entrie in autoruns with the message " file not found ", even tho this is a important .dll and it's critical to make 32bit processes run on a 64bit processor.
