Virus Removal: new folder.exe

Again a very frustrating virus. Spreads from copying itself to the USB drives and makes multiple new folders without any data in them. You can't delete it as it will reappear again and again. It sometimes makes the folders disappear on the pen drive which can then be only accessed by searching on the pen drive. Now you may think that it can be deleted with the help of deleting the autorun.inf files as I have indicated in my previous blog but as you can't access the registry or any of the folders i.e. you can't just delete it.

So you can do this easily with the help of another tool known as Smart Virus Removal Tool. Download and run it and then click on "Delete autorun.inf file" > "Remove virus from USB" > "Restore Default Windows Settings"

The virus will be removed from the pen drive and all the registry settings and the folders will be accessible again.
