how to deal with shortcut virus on flash

in #virus3 years ago

Shortcurt virus is a virus that works by hiding your files and leaving only the shortcuts for those files. indeed nothing is missing from our files, but of course this virus is still annoying because you can't move the file to another place because the file is only in the form of a shortcut.

okay, let's just fix it...

how to delete it we use cmd

open run/win + r on your computer/laptop.
type cmd, like the example image below.

If you have done the steps above then your original file/folder will be visible and please delete the folder that is still a shortcut it will be permanently deleted.

All of the above commands that you have typed in CMD are commands to restore files hidden by the Ramnit virus and even to remove Shortcut viruses that attack your computer.
