our drive is just showing as shortcuts in Windows (as shown in the above figure).
This problem may cause not only in pen drives, also in memory
sticks, phone memories, external hard disks etc. If we trying to open
those folders Windows will show an error that “Shortcut missing…!” We
afraid of losing our data and somebody format the drive. But no need to
afraid for this and format. Yes, this is a type of virus affection. Just
follow the simple steps to remove that shortcuts and retrieve your
folders back.
NOTE:No need of any antivirus software to perform this operation.
- After plug in your virus affected drive, just press Win key + R to open Run box and type “cmd” and press Enter key. (Without double quotes)
- In the opened command prompt, open your drive by enter your drive letter as shown in the below figure. For example, if your drive letter is enter g: and press Enter. (To find your drive letter just open “My Computer” and check your drive icon)
- Now type “del *.lnk” and hit Enter.(without double quotes)
- Finally type the below command and hit Enter. (without double quotes)
“attrib -s -r -h *.* /s /d /l”
That’s it, just wait some seconds. Then open and check your drive.
