How to delete shortcut virus
- Go to Start Menu > Run
- Type cmd (cmd stands for command prompt)
- And using cd\
- Next change particular directory (ex:cd f:)
- Then type f:\attrib -h -r -s /s /d f:\*.*
- After your get the shortcut files in your f drive
- Now you can remove the recycle floder
- +s - meaning it is a system file (which also means that you cannot delete it just by using the delete command)
- +h - means it is hidden (so you cannot delete it)
- +r - means it is a read only file ( which also means that you cannot delete it just by using the delete command)
Find autorun.inf
- Type attrib -s -h -r autorun.inf ( be sure to include -s -h -r because you cannot change the attributes using only -s or -h or -r alone)
- Type attrib again to check if your changes have been commited
- If the autorun.inf file has no more attributes, you can now delete it by typing del autorun.inf
- Since SilentSoftech.exe is a malware you can remove its attributes by doing step 1 and step 3(just change the filename) ex. attrib -s -h -r silentsoftech.exe
