How to remove Shortcut virus?

     Follow the below Steps to remove Shortcut Virus:
  • Go to Start -> Run -> cmd.
  • Go to your pen drive, memory cards or mobile phone directory.
  • Type del *.lnk (to delete all link files in the directory)
  • Type attrib -h -r -s /s /d e:*.*
  • Replace e with your drive letter.
  • And then press a gentle Enter.



If you did not format your flash drive, then check whether the files are not in

hidden mode. Follow the following steps.

Step 1:

Click on the below link and download the file "AutorunExterminator"

Extract it --> Double-click on "AutorunExterminator" --> Plug your pendrive now.

This will remove the autorun.inf files from your pendrive and also from drives.

Step 2:

Click on "Start" -->Run --> type cmd and click on OK.

Here I assume your pen drive letter as G:

Enter this command.

attrib -h -r -s /s /d g:\*.*

You can copy the above command --> Right-click in the Command Prompt and

paste it.

Note : Don't forget to replace the letter g with your pen drive letter.

Now press "Enter".

Now check for your files in Pen Drive.

Step 3:

After that, download the Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from the below link
