, I have an issue with my win7 that I have never seen before, I am having applications completely dissapear from my harddrive,
the folder is still left behind in the start window but is empty, even if I click on the apps desktop icon & open properties, the file path is greyed out confirming its gone!
Im useing a 64bit so its not a rootkit, I find nothing in AV scans, & so far I have not seen the issue if I run a vurtual box, wtf is going on?
Its not just third party app disapearing either , windows media center vanished nad so does windows movie maker, # I am stumped, I found practicaly nothing about this on the web,

Welcome to TPU! :)

Uhm, yeah, about that, well just because you're running a 64-bit OS it doesn't mean that you are immune from rootkits. There are also 64-bit rootkits, just not as many as 32-bit. But the fact that it is rare to find one, isn't something you should go ignoring, because it can bite you when you're not looking.
Also, a 64-bit OS can run 32-bit applications, programs and files.
If it isn't a rootkit, you could start looking for trojans, worms, the usual stuff.

BTW, what AV are you using?

EDIT: Baco, you should really edit your Thread Title. It goes against the rules, you should have read them. Please, don't anger the Mods. Thanks.

You could try chkdisk and see if there is errors on the HDD. And with it being a boot drive make sure it reboots before checking.

Never mind the title then.

Try installing and running a program called HijackThis. Just run it in administrator mode, do a scan and save a logfile, and after paste that logfile into this site's textbox. Press analyze and check if there's anything wrong. If you have any doubts, please, post them here.

The ESET Smart Security is an A-OK AV, in my opinion, as I also use it. There's just one problem with it, without real-time protection over all things, rootkits get in very easily (as well as with any other AV with real-time disabled) and are (almost) never spotted after they're in.
Winpatrol is a very good tool, but only if you know what you are looking for.
And if Malware bytes didn't find a rootkit, either it's very well buried (and in that case, any other anti-rootkit won't find it) or it isn't there at all.

You said you didn't find practically anything about you're problem. I did some research, as this is a rather odd thing, and found out that this, in case of not being a rootkit, it's most likely a corrupt registry.

Backup your files, boot into safe mode, and run for a last time all of your security systems, as an administrator and enable low-lever searches if that's available. Low-lever searches are needed because the rootkit (if there is one) can be running with a kernel driver and in safe mode it will be disabled (hopefully :p).

If it was a rootkit and you solved it, your problems should be gone, if not, there are more drastic measures:

1 - Repair Install

Then login to your computer, take your Win7 DVD, and with it try to do a repair it with the repair install option. This may correct any problems with the Windows registry. Beware some applications and drivers may need to be reinstalled after this. Heres a neat Guide on how to do it.

2 - Format and Reinstall Windows

This one is pretty much known by everyone that uses a computer and already has had a serious problem with it. It's the harshest approach, but most of the times, the most effective.

Due to the lack of info on that particular problem, there aren't any more options I can give you (for the time being...), as it is a very awkward problem.

P.S.: If anyone else wants to give any more inputs to help, I think they would be very welcome.

If you're having this problem after a reinstall, I'd be willing to bet on a bad HDD.

odd, as I have done a memory test and a chkdsk test and both reported no errors, I am going to buy a new HDD as that will tell me for sure one way or the other,
I have also since run the sophos rootkit scan and that was also clean,
what is odd though (to me at least) is that I have not (yet) seen the issue when I ran my OS in a VMware virtual box..
its really perplexing, I have encountered and cured most things you would encounter but this is definatly a new one for me!

yep complete, and not only that but I have used two different DVDs so I doubt they would both be corrupted with the same issue? one is a vista home prem to win 7 prem upgrade disk the other is a full win7 ultimate disc, I will keep checking the ideas/suggestions that get posted to me here and will install to a different HDD and will keep the thread updated as to my progress, as it may be usefull to another user in the future? Thanks for all the inputs so far peeps..

Open up "Computer" and in the address bar, clear everything in there, put the following line in, and hit enter:

%windir%\ehome\ehshell.exe

If Windows Media Center opens, the application is still there but your links are gone/bad.

Baco

Ok I will save and upload a screen shot , but I dont see how that will help you get any more info? aas all you will see is a Block of green with no red at all , As like I said before there was no damaged sektors , And also paint is another app that has dissapeared..

Did you try it?

If you did and it says file not found, you got a virus. You're best fix for that is erasing the computer and reinstalling Windows from the disk.
