How I feel resetting my PC because I've tried everything

This is a 3-panel relatable tech meme using edited scenes from the animated series Gravity Falls. In the first panel, Bill Cipher (cast as a persistent computer virus) is surrounded by bright blue erasure fire, with text representing the user's thought that they are about to successfully erase the virus. In the second panel, Bill acknowledges that performing a factory reset to remove him is a clever move. In the third panel, Bill taunts the user by pointing out that the factory reset will also delete all of the user's personal files alongside the virus, capturing the common frustration of having to sacrifice personal data when no other virus removal method works.

Dialogue

oh yeah, You're going down Virus, you're getting erased
Factrory reset, pretty clever huh?
Don't you realise you're destroying your own files too
