Farbar Recovery Scan Tool, or FRST, is a portable application designed to run on Windows XP, Windows Vista, & Windows 7/8/10  in normal or safe mode to diagnose malware issues. It is also possible to run FRST in the Windows Recovery Environment in order to diagnose and fix boot issues
 

If you are using Windows XP and have boot issue, the system should boot to the Recovery Environment using a PE Boot CD and then you can run FRST


This program will display detailed information about the Windows Registry loading points, services, driver services, Netsvcs entries, known DLLs, drives, and partition specifications. It will also list some important system files that could be patched by malware

Note: There are both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Farbar Recovery Scan Tool available. Please pick the version that matches your operating system's bit type. If you don't know which version matches your system, you may try both of them. Only one of them will run on your system

 


 

Unofficial Portable Farbar Recovery Scan Tool (FRST)

  • Custom Portable Format (NSIS) Developed by DoomStorm
  • Offline Installer 0.2 MB
  • Online Launcher. When a new official version is available, it's automatically downloaded and used. To disable the auto-update function, modify the value of the CheckForUpdates setting in FRST.ini (available in the main folder, beside the launcher, after the first start)
  • At first launch an Internet connection is needed to obtain the current version of the official program
  • To always obtain / use the current official version of the program, it's highly suggested executing the Launcher when the Internet connection is fully available
  • Local settings, of a possibly previously used official version, should be preserved
  • A progress window is shown during starting and closing operations. To hide it, modify the value of the HideProgressWindow setting in FRST.ini (available in the main folder, beside the launcher, after the first start)
  • Like for the official version, English is the only one available language
  • 32-bit / 64-bit. Both versions are fully managed by the Launcher
