>he installed it again and put some malware on my computer (shit like Advanced-PC Care and some DriverDoctor thing, etc.)
>uninstalled most of them with Revo, but had to uninstall Advanced PC-Care from Control Panel

Should I reformat my computer or is this good enough?

Oh yeah I remember DriverDoctor, I see shit like this installed on people's computers all the time at work.

What we do is just uninstall it, and you should be fine. It's just malware, most of the time it's trying to get you to buy into some other scam through it, not directly trying to steal your shit.

My worry is slowing down the ol' computadora

>>17241857
Well did you remove all the malware?

Did you check the running processes to see if there's no weird stuff going on?

If so, you're fine.

>>17241881
I did, running processes don't look suspicious but I never look at them enough to have noticed a difference.

>>17241913
I would say you're good, but if it seems slower than before you might wanna reformat.

What OS is it?

If it's Windows 7 or higher, you can "Reset" it, which would just factory reset it but also keep all your files.
