How to remove Shortcut Virus from your pen drive

Posted by Pushkar
Hello techgeekers…
I am back here with an awesome trick. As you know friends, in the current world of technology, the pen drives are the most common and popular tools of storage for portable data. The reason behind this is because pen drives are small and convenient to carry to another places.
Friends I found this virus when I used my pen drive to take the data from my friend. That time all files and folders stored in the pen drive were missing. Instead of them I found the shortcuts of all files and folders. It was very difficult for me to find the data in it.
Actually friends this problem is not only occurs with the pen drive but also with the other memory devices like hard disk, memory sticks and phone memories. Whenever I try to access the file through shortcuts, it just shows an error saying that the shortcut missing. If the same situation has happened with you guys then this article will be very useful for you.
When this situation occurs, we may go into a fear of losing the data. In some situation in a hurry we format our pen drive. Friends actually this shortcut virus hide all file and folders and shows us a shortcut instead of our file and folders which actually doesn’t exist in real.
Formatting the pen drive may not give us a permanent solution because  it can recreate the same situation again.
Friends I am here to provide you , its permanent solution without using any antivirus.
