TWO QUESTIONS... one about a stubborn virus

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

  1. When I installed the home version, I was asked for a registration number … I didn’t have one, and I clicked “Demo.” The program will expire in 60 days. I understand the company provides a registration number… is it too late to get this?

  2. The program found the following viruses:

c:_RESTORE\ARCHIVE\FS457.CAB
c:_RESTORE\ARCHIVE\FS442.CAB

The c:_RESTORE folder is not seen when I open up “C.”

When I tried to delete, I wasn’t able to. I then tried to rename/move, but I believe I was disallowed in doing so as well.

How do I get rid of these?

Thank you.
