So to avoid it we have to make a prevent against of the virus attack.Some antivirus have a selfguard but it can't guaranteedthat it can't be broke by some new viruses. I suggest a manual way.
This is the steps to prevent it manually:
- Show hidden fileBefore you plug an external HDD or flash drive to your computer.First you have to make the hidden file showing by uncheck"Show hidden files and foldels""Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)".
- Plug your external HDD or flash drive.After you plug it and windows read it. Don't open or Explorer it directly.Use tree view in windows explorer to open it.Just click your external HDD/flash drive to expand it.
- Find "autorun.txt".If you see "autorun.txt", open it. See what applicaton will run if we click it.Most of viruses use extension ".exe" or".pif".
- Find the application and delete it.When you find the "applicationname.exe" or "applicationname.pif" delete it manually and the "autorun.txt" too.
After you finish RePlug your external HDD or flash drive.
