Hi... i also got the solution to that problem from this forum.. here is the solution that worked for me:


Follow all the steps given below. 

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 drives and plug your pen drive to 

remove the autorun.inf file from it also. 

[Note : Make sure Dot Net Framework is installed in your PC. 

OR 

Click on the below link and download the Dot Net Framework. 

https://www.microsoft.com/fr-fr/] 

2) Click on "Start" -->Run --> type cmd and press Enter. 

Here I assume your pendrive 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 : Replace the letter g with your pen drive letter. 

Now check for your files. 

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".
