Hello,
# Download USB Fix

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.
