Windows – Delayed Write Failed, we can say with almost 100% probability, is the fake message you’ve encountered. It is not a real security warning about the errors and problems with your PC. This is the misleading and fictitious error notification having to do with viruses like System Fix, System Restore, Data Restore, Data Repair and Data Recovery fake HDD programs (as well as many other similar malwares). They first started to appear back in autumn of the year 2010 and haven’t seized to exist until nowadays. Moreover, they are progressing quite rapidly, their growth rates are ever increasing and their spread in the realms of the world wide web is expanding by leaps and bounds. Windows – Delayed Write Failed is thus the message you would encounter just before one of the above-mentioned malwares actually appears in front of your PC desktop, gets installed and commences its evil deeds. The feature of this fake error message is that it would appear several times, about 21 or so. Definitely, there is no need for such a high periodicity of this notice to come up in front of you. Here is what it actually says several times:
Windows – Delayed Write Failed
Failed to save all the components for the file \System32\[random symbols] This error may be caused by a PC hardware problem.
Beyond any doubt, this message is a totally untrue one. Your computer file system, most probably, remains in the best form, it’s just the security level of your PC which is very low because it allowed such virus message to appear in front of you and to bring System Fix malware into your computer. So, from now on, make sure to completely disregard any of such fictitious messages originated by System Fix rogue HDD tool.
