I've gone back and forth with that in my head... I've never had a problem with it, but I've thought about editing the OP to include "for starters, reboot into safe mode, scan with malwarebytes & antivirus, etc" ... "and for a kill-it-with-fire approach, here's combofix...". I actually started editing it last night, but thought it came off like it was so time consuming, you might as well just restore.
