The Problem

A ninja was shocked when he found out his files were missing from his thumb drive. He thought the files were already gone because of a virus attack or accidentally deleted by his friends. But actually the files were there but a virus has hidden all the files inside the external harddisk.

Although he tried to "Show Hidden Files" but the virus does not allow her to view them. Luckily, we have the solution

The Solution

1. Insert theexternal harddisk or thumb drive to an empty USB slot. Take note the drive letter. For an example, F:.

2. Press Windows + R, and type "cmd". Ok.

3. Enter this command,

attrib -s -h -r f:/*.* /s /d

4. Press Enter and wait for the command to execute.

5. Open the thumb drive and you should see the files that were hidden by the virus.
