@KOTwarrior This would just remove the parts. This wouldn't help him in this case considering the pieces were not created. All the parts named "Virus" are parts that this user still wants, so removing them would not be the solution. You first have to find the Virus script and disable/remove it. There's Tazer, which is an anti-virus script that runs while you're scripting. This way, these viruses can not happen. Unfortunately, the damage has already been done, and if you would like to get your parts' names back, you will have to not save and restart your studio. You will lose changes from this, unless you want to find the virus script, disable it, remove it, and rename each part manually.
