Unhhiden files and folders.

All of us know that, virus is dangerous event it was cleared from your drive, it can leave some bad effect. The most popular once is hiddening folders, files. Normally, you can go to Properties of a file or folder, unchecked the Hidden and you can show it back. However, when after virus hidden it, you can't do so. I suggest a way to show this folder/file back:



1. Type Windows + R to open Rung dialog box



2. Type in that dialogbox "cmd" to run Command DOS


3. Type in Command DOS: "attrib c:\*.* /d /s -h -r -s"


In that command line:
  • c:\ can be replace with d:\ ... - the drive letter that you want to unhidden files, folder.

  • *.* define exactly what type of files to unhindden (*.* that means all file types)

  • /d means you want to unhindden folders as well

  • /s means you want to unhindden subfolders as well

  • -h is the most important part, it means not hidden

  • -r set files, folder to NOT read only

  • -s also very important, can't be missed. It means you want to process on system file also.
With above command line, i can sure it solve almost of your problems. In some special cases or to customize that command line, just go to Command DOS and type in: "attrib /?" to get more help. In case you have more complicated problem, just comment under this post or mail it to me.

(*) Note : You must sure that no virus in your computer. if virus is still existing, processed folders/files will be hidden again by virus.
