Folder-type viruses are a kind of malicious virus that hides all folders under the root directory and on the desktop, and renames its own copy to the name of the folder. Since the icon of the virus is the folder icon, it's easy to fall victim if the extension name is not displayed. Due to this principle of the virus, it generates a large number of virus copies on the hard drive. Even if the copies are cleared, restoring the hidden folders is not an easy task.
This specialized tool was created specifically for this virus. It can not only remove all the virus bodies and copies as well as the virus registry items, thoroughly eliminating the virus, but also 100% restore the folders hidden by the virus, saving you from manually restoring the folder attributes one by one.
Steps to detect and eliminate:
1. Please click "Detection Instructions" first to view precautions and usage methods.
2. Try to close all running programs.
3. Click the "Start Detection" button to begin detection. The specialized tool will automatically perform three steps: virus cleanup, folder recovery, and registry cleanup.
4. After the detection is complete, there is no need to restart the computer. The virus has been completely removed, and all the hidden folders have returned.
5. If you normally have hidden confidential folders, please remember to reset the hidden attributes.
Precautions:
1. When the software detects the registry, if your system has a program running that intercepts registry operations, be sure to select "Allow Modification."
2. If it's a Vista system, please run this program as "Administrator."
3. If you have folders that need to be hidden, please reset the hidden attributes after detection.
