It can be used in the form of a bootable CD or bootable USB flash drive to recover your computer when the system cannot be loaded normally, such as after an extensive or deep-rooted virus infection. In short, the AVG Rescue enables you to fully remove infections from an otherwise inoperable PC and render the system bootable again.

* Midnight Commander - a two-panel file manager
* Windows Registry Editor– simple registry editor for more experienced users
* TestDisk - powerful hard drive recovery tool

* Common Linux programs and services– vi text editor, OpenSSH daemon, ntfsprogs etc.
