How to protect Your Pendrive From Shortcut Virus?

1. Insert the pen drive.

2. Note down the label of the pen drive from 'My Computer'.
    (It may be like G: , H: , I: ,etc., )

3. Open Command Prompt.

4. Then type attrib -h -r -s /s /d <- pendrive-label ->:\*.*
     (eg.: If the label of the pendrive is G then, attrib -h -r -s /s /d g:\*.*)

5. That's it. All the affected folders will be recovered.
     (If you still not believe me then just open the pen drive and look into it)

Postfix Steps:


  • Copy the recovered files
  • Format the pen drive using any Linux Operating System
  • Paste the recovered files again.
