Remove Shortcut Virus from USB Drives and PC

Step 1. To remove your shortcut virus with the help of your command prompt system, you need to follow the steps ahead.

Step 2. Open Command Prompt by pressing Windows + R and Enter “CMD” in the box and hit enter.

Step 3. Now enter the following in your Command Prompt “attrib :*.* /d /s -h -r -s” without quotes ‘Your USB drive letter‘ must be replaced with your own drive letter. Suppose your flash drive is on Drive F so you must imply the following command “attrib f:*.* /d /s -h -r -s” without quotes and hit enter.

Step 4. Now wait for some time until CMD finishes the command, once it’s completed successfully the shortcut virus will be removed from your PC.
