Remove Shortcut Virus from USB Drive
Sometimes we noticed
that our files or folders are shown as a shortcut in USB drive, PC or Pendrive.
And main files are hidden, usually, we can’t use it. It’s caused by one type of
Virus and this virus may spread to another PC via one USB to another USB or
memory cards or it may Bluetooth. You can’t remove it by using anti-virus. As a
result, the user can’t see the mail file or folder and can’t use that file when
their time of need.
I think most of the
people faced this problem and could not find any way to remove the files to
use. I am also one of them who faced this problem. After then I was looking for
a solution and ask friends to find a solution but most of were failed to give
any tactics. I started to find another way on the internet and some blog site.
I got many solutions to remove shortcut virus from Pendrive or PC. There are
many tactics. Some tactics were complex and some of are easy. Some applications

shortcut virus, First Method is using CMD and 2nd Method is using Software.
