Unhide hidden folders and files after infected by virus

There is occasional problem occurs when you plug in your USB Thumbdrive to somebody laptop or PC and then suddenly your files and folders was infected and hidden while being replace by nasty shorcuts.

First important steps is to install antivirus and virus definition updated, then scan whole infected computer. In this case, I always use AVG Free.

Then use ccleaner to clean up all the mess in the computer.

After that, we need to fix the hidden files and folders problem. This is the command line to fix the problem:

attrib -H -S G:\*.* /S /D

G: is my USB Pendrive path. Use yours.
