Folders become hidden automatically in pen drive?
If your Pen Drive Data or Folder is Hidden and you are not
able to see, but it is still in your pen drive you can check by properties of
drive. It may be because of some virus infection. Don’t worry, you can recover
it easily.
You have to just do some simple steps to solve this problem.
1.
Click start or windows key + R >>run>>type
in "cmd"
2.
Type the location of your flash drive.. e.g.
"d:", "e:", "f:"
3.
Now type "dir /ah"
you will now see the files/folders with hidden attributes
4.
type "attrib [name of file/folder] -r -a -s
-h"
ü
if you're going to unhide files, you should type
the whole name plus the extension (format). example "attrib love.jpg -r -a
-s -h"
ü
if you have folders with 6 characters and above,
type the first 6 characters then "~1".. example for folder named
"anniversary " "attrib birthd~1 -r -a -s -h"
5.
You should type again dir /ah after unhiding
some files/folders so you can
know if
they're now working or not..
6.
Now check your flash drive.. it should be
there..
