Hello,
Recently my USB got infected with the shortcut virus. I used cmd and was able to remove the virus but I am still unable to recover my pictures. They are still apparently unavailable. Is it possible they are permanently gone? Please help!

Hello,

Your flash drive and computer have been infected with a worm.
# Download USB Fix click here
  • Launch it, a shortcut will be created on your desktop.

  • Choose "Clean" option.
  • A pop-up will follow
    Connect all your external data sources to your PC (Usb keys, sd cards external drives, etc...)
  • Once you're ready, click "OK".
  • While cleaning, you will lose access to your desktop, but this is normal.

The numbers of analyzed and infected elements are displayed.

# Copy/paste the report here.
