It said windos.exe had a virus so I tried to fix it but it said it was unfixable so I deleted it now it says I need windos.exe whenever I try to run any .exe file. I have looked and I have found differn't versions but so far none of them have worked

WINDOS.EXE is part of the virus that you had! NOT a necessary windows file! remove any references to it! in your registry/win.ini and sys.ini! I think its part of the "pretty park " virus!? but not 100% sure?
