i can't find the autorun.inf !!! when i open cmd and type autorun.inf. it says "autorun.inf" is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
In windows 7, Run cmd as administrator, type the letter for your USB/Pen Drive (e.g. F: E:) and type "autorun.inf" and press enter, then type "del autorun.inf" and its finished!
i have a better idea...try with a software to patch your USB drives...what did it does?...it just create a folder inside the drive with the name autorun.inf without read or write rights, so, when some virus try to copy itself on your flash drive, it just cannot, because it can't modificate the folder...simple as that...
@riekotz actually, it works for me, i use a lot of public pc on my university...the only way to modify or delete the autorun.inf folder from you flash drive it's giving a new format to it...trust me...it works...search for further info...
Hope it helps, its a very complete guide, if you have issues on usb flash memories or any other MS device just change the drive unit in your command prompt by typing the drive unit and pressing the enter key i.e H: and hit enter.
@BOD543 if its in F: then goto command prompt and type F: and press enter
there type attrib -s -h -r autorun.inf and press enter
then type del autorun.inf
you may get a message like (The process cannot access the file because it is been used by another process) in case you get this message, Send me a message about it and i'll help you.
well just remains that the creator of this video do another one where he self xplain how detect malaware whit the "netstat" command and how remove it from the computer (thats malaware detected whit netstat command its the most dangerous that acomputer will be have...i recommend, that if you have some of them...quickly shutdown you computer...and unplug from de AC...and let that computer and use another one...because you are high hacked). but if some one can xplain how fix it...if not well ...
i'm using eset nod32, it keeps deleting it, but it keeps showing on and on, even tough i used this method (when i try to delete it says can't find), i tried using explorer, didn't show up (even after disabling hidden system files), tried deleting syistem restore and empting rb, nothin...the good part, may i say, is that it wasn't detected anything on the local drives, but i may suspect, oh, and no funny writing, only infecting any usb memory stick or card :(( what should i do?
thedemon221: of course u still got that message. u should restart your PC and later on (if the problem still occurs) remove the file using i.e. Avast. It works! Thanks jackqs for posting it - good job!
that's a lie an autorun is a good file, u can create it but if it's is infected u have to use ur antivirus otherway even if u r deleting it, it'll appear again, use an antivitus
had this virus i think (had computer reformated and windows reinstalled by pro) question? i have a flash drive with a file autorun.inf i can't delete it and a folder beside it says .html how can i get my flash drive back i have files on it i need i am afraid to put it in my computer after it is fixed
hey, ive been searching for hours but i dont know whether i do have the autorun virus.
Whenever I try to open mozilla a pop up appears and it says that it cannot be opened and its a bad image and theres an OK sign on the bottom. After i close that window, mozilla pops up.
It does that again whenever I try to open any other programs.
The PCs were I work were infected by this virus, as well as Recycler. Our former antivirus software didn't help, but Avira can wipe them off PCs and pen drives. Might as well try it...
I had McAfee antivirus and yesterday it kept coming up that it had detected and deleted an autorun.inf trojan but it kept coming up like it kept detecting it and deleting it then I looked online to get help on it but it led me nowhere but as I was following those instuctions it had told me to restart the computer then when I did I did a scan and found nothing then a while ago i ran a antispy and found and deleted a trojan I followed your video and came bak autorun.inf not recognized as comm file
My Nod32 keeps on "detecting and deleting" the autorun.inf. The bad thing is that i don't think the autorun.inf is going anywhere since the Nod32 Notice comes out almost every minute saying that it has "detected and deleted" the autorun.inf (O_O)
When I right click on me drives it doesn't come up with any crazy writing.. when it type c: in cmd it still says C:\documents and settings\name> not C:>?
i treid this but it didn't work.. The virus disabled my folder option, and when i use my cmd it says that the autorun.inf is not recognized as a internal or external cammad. What will i do? Please help me thanks.
exactly the same as i sir, hope someone can help us both here. hey when you open any folder in the c or d drive does it make it's window? and then when you open the file inside those folder it creates another window, and son on?
and when start your machine up do you see a weird window that says "it's my birthday" + "so strange bunch of crap unknown langauage" +"don't kill me"... ?
I want to add in to this video. Another way which I can locate and remove the autorun.inf from pendrive is to right click explore the drive and go to Folder Options > View > Choose show hidden files and folders > Uncheck hide protecting operating system files. Locate the autorun.inf and remove it from there.
Usually access denied are attributed by non-administrative rights. What I suggested could be a resolution to it (using admin accnt to do it). If it doesnt work, then it would be another thing all together.
tnx it helps deleting other virus..

Your method is correct but autorun viruses often come with another .exe of .pif files which the autorun runs
you wont be able to see it, to see those files goto command prompt (start > run >cmd) goto the drive u want to check by typing X:
X here represents your infected drive
then type attrib to see the attributes of all the files there
you will see a file with extensions .pif or .exe with a weird name lije gtgaa.exe etc.
you have to delete that too

While I don't have an alternate way to delete AUTORUN.INF from a computer, the following method cleans up my pen drives quite nicely:
1. Insert in a G3 or G4 Mac.
2. Look up AUTORUN.INF in the pen drive, then use the GET INFO feature to reveal its "locked" state. Unclick the lock.
3. Send AUTORUN.INF to the trash, then, while you press the OPTION key, empty the trash.
4. If you find a RECYCLER file, repeat steps 2 and 3.
This does not prevent reinfection but cleans my pen drives.
