Watching your important documents and files corrupted and infected with shotcuts virus in a flash drive, hard drive, memory card etc is some thing many of us would not want to experience.most at times, when i go to a business center to do some work, i would either end up not completing the job because of the documents or files being corrupted and infected with shotcut virus which changes the files to shotcut that has the arrow icon like that being displayed on your desktop.in this case, when i tried to open the files, it won't open or it will say corrupted.well, if you are having this problem, here is a post on
how i fixed shotcut virus that affected my documents and files inside flash drive, hard disk.
when you noticed the shotcut virus on your flash drive or external hard drive,you will see an arrow icon on the document, file, folder.
in a situation like this, do not scan with antivirus software like avira, avast, eset, kapasky because they may see it as virus and deleted it.all you need is an antivirus software that will see it as virus but also have the features to fix/repair it.one of the best i have used which is working perfectly well for this purpose is
smadav antivirus.
i never though this would work because it is the free version but to my supprised, it repairs and fixed the shotcut virus and the files and documents was opening perfectly well.
