Majority of computer users nowadays uses USB flash memory's like pendrives for transferring data, movies, games documents and more.. The only disadvantage of using this kind of memory is that most of these Flash disk's have write protection or virus protection in it.
If you have some nasty virus on USB drive that hide all your file in the drive? ie; hides your files and folders, creates exe file extensions of your folders and even corrupt your files. You can view these files by going to Tools>>Filder Options ..But the attributes of these files often stay unchanged even if you uncheck hidden attribute on file/folder properties.
One sure way to retrieve your file or folder attributes back to unhidden is to use command prompt in windows. All you have to do is described below in steps.
STEP 1:
Plug your pendrive to USB port of your computer. Make sure it is detected.
STEP 2:
Start command prompt by Click Start>>Run and type cmd then hit enter.
STEP3
Find the drive letter for the conected USB drive. For example, G:
In command prompt, type G:
Then type
attrib -s -h /s /d *.*

If you do get a computer virus, will you lose everything on your hard drive? It actually is rare for this type of virus to spread very fast or far. Annoying viruses that stop you from starting your computer or using windows or those that mail spoof emails to your entire email address book are much more common. The hard drive is usually recoverable when the computer has one of these viruses.

Thank you very much...but how clean the .exe files which effected by virus
file not found -*.*
what if this problem prompt if i'll type the attrib -s -h -d *.* - thanks
To know if the code "should" work:
Browse the directory where there are files supposedly hidden by the virus - through WinRAR.
If you can see the files on WinRAR, then they CAN be unhidden through these codes, and if you got errors, then check the syntax.
If you can't see any files through WinRAR. Then probably, it's "file not found".
Also check if your root directory is the Pendrive
i.e.
G:\>
Cheers,
A.A.
