How to recover hidden Files from Virus infected USB Pendrive
Recover Hidden Files from Pendrive/Flash Drive/USB Drive
Files not showing in USB Drive/Pen drive
Files changed to Shortcuts in Pendrive/USB Drive
How to recover Lost files on Pendrive / USB Drive
Now a days all the people use USB Flash drives like Pendrive, External Hard Disk and Many more. They all skipped DVD, CD and all optical Disc because it takes time to copy and it cannot be reused. So USB Pendrives are now with all people. I used to see all over my college, they hang USB pendrive in their necks. They carry Music, Movies, Datas in that. How USB flash drives improves as the mean while USB virus also increases along with that.
If you have some nasty virus on USB drive that hide all your file in the drive? ie; hides your files and folders, creates exe file extensions of your folders and even corrupt your files. You can view these files by going to Tools>>Folder Options ..But the attributes of these files often stay unchanged even if you uncheck hidden attribute on file/folder properties.
Here i going to tell the Permanent Solution for recovering hidden files by Command prompt in windows operating system.
Step One:
Plug your USB Pendrive or External HDD or Memory Card which is Affected.
Step Two:
Go to Start -> Run-> Type CMD and Enter
Step Three:
Find the drive letter for the connected USB drive. For Example, I:
In command prompt, type I:
and Hit enter. Command Prompt will show I:/
Step Four:
Then type
attrib -s -h /s /d *.*
Make sure that you put space between each elements in the code.
and hit enter and wait for few seconds.
Check the Screen Shot of Above Steps:
Now check your USB pendrive you can see your files are back in their locations. If you have any doubts get our Solution Group at facebook www.facebook.com/groups/tech2hell

I’m afraid it didn’t work for me as i tried to recover hidden files from virus infected memory card from my phone.The response from the DOS is “unable to change attribute -E” . Please help look into it. Thanks
We didnt mention E Attribute in the post. Type attrib -s -h /s /d *.*
The E is the memory card letter. I am reporting the response i get after following your steps. I have tried it several times but it still the same. The hidden files has not return.
Are you using your Card Reader to Deduct your Memory card or using Photo usb cable to do.?
The E is memory card letter. I am reporting the response i get after following your steps. I have tried it several times but it still the same. The hidden files has not return.

Hey Vincent, Thanks for the info and help. I got the Memory card Reader and i try to deduct but it is still not working. Maybe it is highly affected. The hidden files did not appear. The Memory card is 2GB. I’ve used 1.14GB and the free space is 743MB. It shows some files is hidden but i can’t still see anything. I noticed that about 10 Folders has been created with kind of chinesse language since it was infected with virus. It’s not deleting. I’m planning of formating the memory card. Thanks for the help once again. I know you have so much to offer.
Sorry about this case. Well we are hear to help you anytime. Welcome
Thank you so much Vincent! It did show my hidden files. However, it did not show everything. Some folders are still hidden. I got an error message “Access Denied” in some folders. Those wee the ones not shown.
Can you help me further please.

I tried accessing the folder but it also gave me an error message “Access Denied” 🙁 Any other way?

This is perfect. The comp at my college where I work infected my drive. IT claimed it wasn’t possible. Your fix allowed me to access my files though I still have a bunch of weirdly-named mysterious files that I guess I’ll just manually delete.
Thanks!
thank you so much for the help, all my files are back
Thanks for your Valuable Comment… you are welcome luram 🙂
Didn’t solve it.
Access Denied G:\ Autorun.inf
You can delete the antorun.inf through CMD PRMT
It worked after displaying
Access Denied G:\ Autorun.inf.
I set the folder option to view hidden files.
thanks.

pls help me out bro…its my imp data
thank you
check our facebook group
http://www.facebook.com/groups/imacify
if its not workin, follow this
1) Install Ubuntu inside windows(Later can easily removed from “uninstall programs”)
2)connect the infected hdd
3)delete all the virus files…(Ubuntu will show all the virus as files as no virus can affect Ubuntu)
4)now connect to windows
5)File still not visible….?”Now enter attrib -h -r -s /s /d g:\*.* (Assuming ‘g’ as infected drive, if yours is ‘h’, replace ‘g’ with ‘h’ )
(Step 5 is given in a diff format by vincent raja…so it can be used as step 5 )
thank u all
Thanks for your info 🙂
Thank you very much. It worked perfectly fine. My whole college is facing the same problem with our pendrives. Some have files hidden while some have them converted into shortcuts. Does the command works for the shortcut problem as well? I would like to know more about the virus: how it spreads, where the virus file is located, etc. Does the command you provided us with remove the whole virus in the pendrive or just unhide the files?
I would also like to know if the virus affect a host computer that is plugged-in with an infected pendrive.
Thank you.
thank you for your info. It helps me recover my files in my flash drive. 😀

Thanks for your comment dilleep
I tried what you said, and cmd lists all my folders, but “Access Denied” is infront of all of them. I went into the My Computer folder to check the drive, and all my folders are still hidden. It did however create a “Recycler” folder — but of course it’s a dead end. What else can I do? How do I get it to say “Access Granted” ??

OO Thanx buddy,, it worked
thank you man’ this file is really worked..thank u again
thanks a lot! (n.n)
hey…many many thanks…i got all my files back…!
Useful trick, although it only worked for me doing it one bye, eg:
attrib -s -h /s /d
because my infected hardware was a USB HDD and the cmd prompt would stop at the system folders of the drive, not going over the rest of the folders. Finally I didn’t have more than 20 of them, so it was pretty easy.
Remember, if this happens to you as well as me, don’t try to change attributes to every single subfolder and / or file, only to the root folders; this will suffice.
I meant one by one:
attrib -s -h /s /d “folder name”
THANKS A LOT!!
sir doesnt work on me is shows
recovery access denied T_T
thanks bhai….
Thank you very very very much!!! I recovered everything I thought I lost (which btw was rly rly important). Again thanks a lot.

thanx a lot
followed all the stps given above, but after hitting enter,the following msg in refelected in the screen is:
Access denied – G:\System Volume Information
Wht to do now….It was my 500gb hard drive..
My 500 Gb Hard drive had some folders… and i hv given it one of my frnd…after receiving back, i found that the space in drive as it is bt the some folders is not there…when i opt to show hidden files and folders in the Folder option…again no folders is there…i hv one tool i.e. Disk Explorer installed in my PC , when i analyze/explored my drive using that tool, all the missing folders is showing in that tool. When i see the folder properties of those folders, In Attribute section wht i see is that Green square (not tick mark) Read Only option is checked and also Hidden option is tick marked (not green square) but this hidden option is dehighlighted i.e i can’t change that one…When i searched over net i found a software called Attribute changer-7 using which we can change attributes. But problem is when i right click on my hard drive and click Change attribute, there are lots of option…
So anyone pls guide me in changing attributes. I’m confused Which option to check and which to uncheck.
One more thing is that in mydrive one folder is there called “System Volume Information”. When I try to open that folder, a window containing message is being reflected. The msg is as follows” G:\ System Volume Information is not accessible” and in 2nd line “Access is denied”
So pls anyone olve my prob as soon as possible….i am very much afraid of my data in those folders..pls suggest a successful step by step method to solve this without losing any data.
Be in mind that my all folders are not viewable even clicking Show hidden folders but when I explres it in a disk explorer software, it shows all my files and folders. Also when i see drive space in my computer, it is full. Pls solve my prob…
are wah after submitting my long story here..when i checkewd my hard drive…all the folders which was missing is now receovered…
grt thanks to imacify team…
i hv searched and tried lots of times using the command prompt but failed, but here the explanation o typing command in cmd screen is awesome….
thank you so muck
hurray all my lost data is now receoverd…
but after seraching alot and getting successful…still i want to know the reason of showing the access is denied, in system volume information folder…
thxs once again…
bookmarked this site..
After recovering my folders…i can see some unkown folders.. so can anyone tell me wht to do with those folders….its looking like a system generated folders…their names are :
1. $RECYCLE.BIN
2. RECYCLER
3. System Volume Information (this was already there before doing above steps)
Can i delete these folders…is my drive will create prob if i delete those folders…pls help
No it wont.. You can delete those folders without fear 🙂
@ Vincent
Thxs for ans..but the folder “System Volume Information” is not deleting…what to do…Even its not opening..Acess is denied…is there any solution…
Its not needed actually….

Hey listen, I have around 2GB of my important files on my USB. My USB has storage of 4 GB, and at afternoon I moved my files from previous USB onto this new one. Everything worked out fine, but i didnt press “Remove Safely and Eject”, instead i just pulled it out. Now when i plug my USB back into my computer, when i go to ‘My Computer’ I can see that it says 700MB free of 4GB, but when i go inside the USB, i can only see files of 1 GB. I cannot find the files I uploaded this afternoon .. I know they are there because it does say 3GB is being used but when i go in, i only see files that hold 1 GB. My important files of 2GB are there but i cannot seem to find them. I know they are not hidden because i went in folder options and pressed view hidden files, i tried what u did but that didnt seem to work.
Folder Options / View Hidden Files wont reveal all system kinda files. It will show up normal files and Folders.
Most of the times the files & Folders will be Converted to System files and hidden by the special attributes. So it can not be revealed in normal Folder Opitons / View Hidden Files. You have to follow this post information or use our tool to recover it in safe way. Thank you.
