Returning the Lost Folder

not a secret anymore if the Microsoft Windows operating system (OS) that is very vulnerable to viruses. surefire many users that constantly fortify its Windows OS to use anti-virus is always updated regularly. However, sometimes when we do scaning the computer terinveksi, the virus can be on the hill or clean, just a folder that terinveksi is also missing. gawatnya more cases of this kind occur not only on the local harddisck, but can also occur on a removable disck, such as portable hard disk, flash disk, or memory card. usually happens if the case such as this, the user will try to find a missing folder is as follows:





1. in windows explorer into the Tools menu, then click on the sub folder menu option. shortcut to it can use ALT + Q, then press the O.
2. Entry in the tab view to the way direct to click or press CLTR + TAB once to move from tab to tab general view.
3. Check list and give the show hidden files and folders. click OK ago.


However, when I have tried as above but a folder that we're looking for is still not showing, then it can be terinveksi computer virus that berekstensi *. scr.
How the virus is very simple, that is changing every folder on the computer (both local and harddisck removable disck) to file the application with a capacity of 32 Kb duplicated. and when the try in the clean (scaning) using one of the antivirus vendor, the virus can be removed, but the effect arising from the process of scanning the folders that this virus fell ill become lost.
In fact the folder is not lost, but it is only hidden (hidden). Folders that are lost we can return by using the attrib command in the command prompt. How very simple one, but before the shell how to restore the folder that is missing, let us study a little about this attribute.
To view the Properties attribute can be done in different ways. but in this occasion will be described using the command promt. Command attribute work on DOS command prompt, has several functions, one of which is to set the attribute of a file if the file attribute will be given, among others:

* Read-only file attribute
* Archive file attribute
* System File Attributes
* Hidden File Attribute


The phases to restore the missing folder using the command promt is as follows:

1. Into the Start menu and select RUN.
2. Then a window will open RUN, then type the word cmd and press enter.
3. After the command promt window opens, and then type attrib /? To find out some of the properties on the attribute via the command prompt.
4. Then the prompt will appear sederatan sentence that describes attribute such as:

Sign (+) for an attribute sets.
Sign (-) for Clears an attribute.
The letter R for read-only file attribute.
A letter for the Archive file attribute.
Letter S for the System file attribute.
Letter to H Hidden file attribute.
/ S to the equation file in the folder and all subfolders, previously on the computer.
/ D for the process to be conducted against the folder itself. Back kepembahasan early, to the case folder is missing, the command that we type in the command prompt is:
Type C:> or D:> or the drive where the folder is missing, and then press enter.
Then type attrib-s-h *.* / S / D
The last step is the exit from the command promt window and then refresh the computer, (shortcut F5).

Now note the changes that occur on the computer, a folder that has been lost is displayed again. So do not worry about the folders that were lost because of virus fell ill berekstensi *. scr.
