Remove Virus Manually From Your Computer

First click the “Start” button and go to “Run“. You can also press “Windows+R“. Type “cmd” there.




Type the following commands in the Command Prompt
  • Type “<Drive_name>:” in the command prompt and hit “Enter“. (“Drive_name” is where the problem occurs, it may be any USB drive)

  • Type “attrib” and hit “Enter“. (This shows the files that are present in the currently working directory. You can also use the command “dir/w/o/a/p“)

  • If there are any file named autorun.inf then go for next steps else the drive is not affected with any autorun.inf file.

  • Type “attrib -h -r -s -a *.* ” then hit “Enter“.  (This command removes the Hidden, Read Only, System and Archive attributes over any file)

  • After unhiding and removing attributes you can see the files.  So you can delete the file now.

  • Type “del <filename>” in the Command Prompt and hit “Enter“. (As for example del autorun.inf)



Now your computer is virus free. Enjoy! Feel free to share your experience with us.
