The Device might have been infected with a virus. scan it with a system that has a good antivirus. if files are still hidden, Explore the device, select folder option, and thick or mark show hidden files. good luck |

You are the genius. Thanks a million bro. Have my files back.don't forget, displaying hidden file will not remove the worm from the flash and the system. i will advice you look for a good anti-virus and scan the flash before damage your system and anything that come across |
