How to Remove Recycler from your Pen Drives

The most irritating virus in your pendrive is recycler. Here's an old-school & simple method to remove recycler from your pen drives.




Step 1: 
Click on the below link and download the file "AutorunExterminator" 
http://en.kioskea.net/download/download-11613-autorun-exterminator 
Extract it --> Double-click on "AutorunExterminator" --> Plug your pen drive now.
This will remove the autorun.inf files from your pen drive and also from
the other drives.

Step 2: 
Go to cmd, (win 7 -> go to start, type cmd || win 8/8.1 search cmd on start page)
Here I assume your pen drive 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 External hard drive letter.
Now check for your files in External Drive.

Step 3:
After that, download the Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from the below link

Update it --> Perform "Full Scan"
Note : Default selected option is "Quick Scan".


Good Luck!
