  • How come the autorun won't automatically run when you plug in the USB or open it?

  • @tigergoldfish17 I've disable the autorun for the usb plug in. Use the left pane to open usb drive, then the autorun won't automatically run.

  • Is it possible to utilize an external hard drive on the left as in this video and clean it up with a anti virus program?

  • @GuitarosaurusRex Sure can, still the same. Will be better if you clean with antivirus, make sure use the paid anti virus.

  • @muszztictac P.S. What I did is scanned each folder within the External HD and deleted every one that had a threat or a corrupted archive, so it should be safe to open the important files that are in it now, correct?

  • @GuitarosaurusRex yeah. Just make sure use the latest av and keep updated with the very latest virus and spyware definitions.

  • good video,it worked 100% for me.

    

  • Thank you man...

  • @muszztictac Cool... thanks again for your help.

  • @muszztictac Okay.. thanks again... and on the anti virus program... it's good one - same one you have on this video :-)

  • @GuitarosaurusRex If the folder is uncheck hidden,it's mean it is a normal file can be seen by anyone.The most important thing here is the permanently tick hidden files ( 2:55 ) should not be inside your external HD. The permanently tick hidden means it is a "system files". So what I mean in this video, just delete the "system files" inside your external HD or usb drive. But if there a folder name " System Volume Information" inside your usb or ext. HD don't delete it ok. It's a windows files.
