This is caused due to Rogue software called windows recovery tool.
The infection hides the files .Most of the time it hides the desktop,startmenu ,quick launch icons in a folder called SMTMP which is located in %temp% folder.
So First step is to
Run malwarebytes and clean the PC ,reboot and then try to unhide files.
by using unhide.exe or Running this command as administrator
attrib -h c:\*.* /s /d
This will unhide your files but doesnot recover your lost ICONS.
If you are lucky and not cleared your %temp% folder ,you can
RECOVER YOUR START MENU AND DESKTOP ICONS FROM SMTMP folder
For
windows vista and win 7
1. Copy the entire content of this folder:
C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\Temp\smtmp\1
and paste it to this folder:
c:\program data/microsoft/windows/start menu
2. Copy the entire content of this folder:
C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\Temp\smtmp\2
and paste it to this folder:
C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch
3. Copy the entire content of this folder:
C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\Temp\smtmp\3
and paste it to this folder:
C:\Users\user-name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar
4. Copy the entire content of this folder:
C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\Temp\smtmp\4
and paste it to this folder:
C:\Users\Public\Desktop
windows xp
1. Copy the entire content of this folder:
c:\users\username\appdata\local\temp\smtmp\1
and paste it to this folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu
2. Copy the entire content of this folder:
c:\users\username\appdata\local\temp\smtmp\2
and paste it to this folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch.
4. Copy the entire content of this folder:
c:\users\username\appdata\local\temp\smtmp\4
and paste it to this folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop.
YOU CAN USE RECUVA SOFTWARE TO RECOVER THE ICONS IF SMTMP FOLDER IS NOT PRESENT
