I am trying to manualy remove viruses using cmd ?

Question

cd..
cd..
D:
dir
attrib -s -h *.* /s /d

And It says access denied what do i do ???

Answer 1

You cannot say that you are removing the viruses using this command.This is a command used to remove the system and hidden attribute.it remove the system attribute and unhide this.but the virus will not delete.but why that access denied is that virus process will be running on ur system.

instead dir put dir /as

this will display the system files.

open the taskmanager and find the virus process on the task manager and end that process.

but most times u cant do this.

u can go to safe mode and do this there u can do this without that access denied.

if u want to do in the normal mode means u should remove that virus from executing at the startup.this is done by removing

that file in msconfig in run and in that window click startup tab and remove all unnecessry files and virus files in that.

if have any queries or doubts let me know,mail me at [e-mail]

Answer 2

This is because there may be some system files of which the access is always denied.

your code is not appropriate.

To see them, use the code

attrib -s -r -h *.*



it will get displayed. thats it.

Answer 3

Run antivirus software like a sane person.
