    ASUS vs MSI

    In my personal opinion, i would get the ASUS machine, just because i have previously owned an ASUS laptop and can say they are very good quality and have good customer service incase something goes wrong. As for the MSI machine, i haven't exactly heard the best things about these so i would...

    I forgot my phone number

    If you mean your mobile phone number, for iphones it can be found at the top of your calling app in the contacts tab. I am unsure about other brands of phones.

    Trend Micro Security Trojan Removed

    I'm not sure if they changed from the malware or from some other reason, but im not sure why someone would want to edit those files. And yes, a full scan normally covers all drives that are currently connected to the machine.

    Trend Micro Security Trojan Removed

    Its possible that it made changes but very unlikely. If it did make changes all i can really suggest is make sure all malicious files are removed from the computer (i suggest malwarebytes for doing this, but also doing a full system scan with your antivirus wouldn't hurt) and if nothing is found...

    windows 2 go

    If your booting from that USB, then everything you do will be saved to that USB, unless you transfer files to one of the other drives. i guess another option would be running a Virtual Machine and having the virtual machine software on the USB, not sure if that would write data to anywhere other...

I would also recommend finding a...

    Hijacked search engine choice in many browsers

    Make sure you scan your computer with software like malwarebytes, and make sure to clear anything that seems suspect in the extensions part of your browser. If that doesn't fix it, i may suggest re-installing the software but that can be a pain sometimes.

    xbox one stolen

    most likely not a possibility you would be able to do this. Your best chance is to contact microsoft / xbox live support, and asked if they could do it for you, but i doubt they will

    Gaming Laptop + External Monitor?

    Only buy a monitor that has a higher refresh rate if your laptop can run games at a high FPS. That is the only way you will tell the difference between a 60hz monitor and a 144hz monitor. If your laptop runs games at 50-60 fps, then i suggest getting a 60hz monitor.
