Hi Lily, I have just used Freefixer to removed the rather annoying nfc_driver.sys. The software has successfully deleted it on its first try, thank god!

I had this problem for many months. I had to run Mcafee LiveSafe quick scan to detect the trojan. However, Mcafee couldn't remove it. Even the tech team that I called couldn't remove it. :/
So I went onto here to find a solution and it worked!

Has this software not worked for you then?
