It looks like you picked up a virus:
f 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"
https://ccm.net/downloads/security-and-maintenance/5911-autorun-exterminator/
Extract it --> Double-click on "AutorunExterminator" --> Plug your pendrive now.
This will remove the autorun.inf files from your pendrive and also from the drives.
Step 2:
Click on "Start" -->Run --> type cmd and click on OK.
Here I assume your pendrive 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.
Press Enter
Now check for your files in Pen Drive.
Step 3:
After that, download the Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from the below link
https://ccm.net/downloads/security-and-maintenance/4621-malwarebytes-anti-malware/
Update it --> Perform "Full Scan"
Note : Default selected option is "Quick Scan".
Good Luck.
