I recently ran a script in a Roblox executor and now I've been logged out of my Discord account. I'm really worried! I've already changed my passwords for Steam, email, and Discord, and I ran rkill as well as a full scan with Windows antivirus and Malwarebytes. What other steps should I take to ensure my computer is safe?

While most scripts are just pranks, there's no guarantee that this one is harmless. It might be worth completely resetting your system, changing all your passwords, enabling two-factor authentication, and getting familiar with the best security practices. Better safe than sorry!
First off, it's a good idea to change your passwords again, but do it from a different, secure device if you can. Reinstalling Windows might be the safest route, as it wipes everything clean. Just make sure you back up anything important first. And seriously, avoid running untrusted scripts in the future; they can do a lot of damage!
Thanks for the tip!
Hey, if I want to reinstall Windows, where can I find detailed instructions?
Be careful! Your keystrokes could be recorded and sent to whoever provided you with that script. It's a scary thought, I know, but it's a possibility you should keep in mind!
Don't scare me even more!
I’m pretty sure this one was malicious; I got logged out of Discord, and the sender deleted all his messages. How exactly do I reset my system from scratch?
