Hi. This is Off Topic.
Is there a reliable usb or dvd distribution with tools to clean up
viruses, root kits, whatever from a Hard drive?
I got a quite slow windows 10 laptop from a nephew for clean up (I do
not know what kind of viruses/malware might be lurking in there).
Rather than hooking it to my home network I would prefer to first start
it from a cleaning usb/dvd and at least catch and erase them off line
instead of giving them the opportunity to try and conquer my linux realm :)
Thanks

Use dd to cut it to a Flash Drive
If all else fails, do a dd /dev/zero and wipe out the hard drive
and start over.
If you have not used Windows Nein, oops, Windows Ten before
you are in for a rude awakening! Swearing helps.What
were they thinking!
