any way to check my pc for anything that might get me vac banned ?
so i have been VAC banned and i fought for it because i never cheated which was about 2 months ago, but theres a gaming competition happening near me, and if i'm going to keep waiting for this ♥♥♥♥♥♥ VAC unban then i'll never enter it,
what im here for tho is because im planning on buying CSGO on another account, but on the same pc, and although i know that nothing should get me banned, but i want to make sure that i don't get vacboozeled again so can they scan my pc for anything that might get me banned ?

The best way to be sure is to completely reformat your PC. This will remove any cheats or anything you had that might have gotten you banned.

There is no scanning software that scans for cheats.

what im looking for isnt like game cheats or like hacked clients, what i mean by that is lets say some programs such as cheat engine, non steam games, torrents, and stuff like that

Erm...

Cheat Engine = Game cheats if used that way
Non-Steam games = Cracked clients (unless you actually mean games that aren't on Steam)

You say you don't want it to find them, but then say you do? VAC bans for cheats. If you have cheats, you should know. You're responsible for what is on your PC so you should know what you have.

why were you banned? have a look at the info link located to the right of your vac notice, it will tell you why you were banned?, steam will not tell anyone but you why, or provide proof so no point asking for that

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1139686702

then go read the vac info link below, it will help you understand the vac you have?

http://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/9/882959527688934488/

please dont ask for your ban to be removed as there are no steam or valve staff on here that can remove your ban, and all bans are permanent.

If the cheats are still on your PC then yes any accounts created will also be banned.

No, VAC detects cheats. Nothing else.
