Did you eventually notice that all your data on any of your USB Drives is Vanished and only you could see is a Shortcut in name, same as your Pendrive name.




DO NOT PANIC ! It is a ‘USB Shortcut Worm Virus‘. Your data is safe. The only thing is you cannot access it directly.

For this you dont require Antivirus Support at this moment. The only thing you need to do is :
  •  Open CMD as an Administrator.
  •  Choose the drive that you want to recover by entering the drive letter and colon.
  • For Example if K is the drive the type K: and press enter.

Type the command: attrib -s -h *.* /s /d and press enter.
it may show something like this but the data will be recovered check your drive.


Allow it to process depending upon the size of your USB Drive or hard disk and observe that you have got some folders visible in your Drive. Browse the folders and you could see your data recovered back.
Delete the other folders and files which are unnecessary.
