I think I've been hacked
Is there a way to revert your PC to a previous date using webroot? I think my computer got hacked and my computer reverted to its almost original state of when I bought it. I went into the system restore settings and It said to previous date was found.

Hello and Welcome to the Webroot Community!
No not with Webroot but within Windows System Restore you can reverse the Restore and or choose another restore point: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-ca/windows-vista/undo-system-restore just make sure you have a copy of your Webroot Keycode if you need to install after reversal.
If you have further questions feel free to ask!
Thanks,
Daniel 😉

Hi capasc1
Welcome to the Community Forums.
If I may just add to what Danilel has posted...System Restore just restores SYSTEM files and related data to the state they were in at the time of the Restore Point that one goes back or forward to, it does not restore user installed apps, files or data so hopefully you will have a back up of your data to reload once you have restored to a suitable point?
If not then I am afraid you will have lost that data as the System Restore will not recover it.
