sk1llz and UserU, no I don't have any hidden files. All my files are visible as usual. Only that the pendrive became shortcut. That's all. I need to removed that shortcut.

chansellor, thanks for the command, but it still not working in my case.

Done with the full scan, show results, should I removed the selected ticks?

did the result show any virus? try re scan again. if you get the same result means your drive is infected with virus.

if yes, then you can just remove it by simply pressing the Del button, as usual.

Quick Heal is also a reputable antivirus.

Try to ask around whether ppl really know about Quick Heal.
If no one know about it, then you can't call it "reputable" brand.

As for your case, I will uninstall the Quick Heal and install Avira free into your system.
Update Avira and do whole HDD scan on any virus.

Malwarebytes did a good job too.

If you can't get the virus remove and you don't want to format your HDD, you should send it to any pc repair shop and let the technician clean the virus for you.

try:

1) open your command Prompt
2) type f:
then enter
3) you will get F:\> right?
type attrib -h -s /s *.* /d
then enter
4) when the process is done, minimize the Command Prompt. open your Removable drive (F) and try to delete the Removable drive (2GB) shortcut.

If the shortcut could not be deleted or it reappear, i think you have a virus on it. the shortcut cant be removable until you remove the virus.

1) download unhidden.txt and change its extension to unhidden.bat  (batch file)

2)after that put it into the root directory (or other directory as you wish wink.gif ) of your pendrive (IE: G:\,  I:\) and double click on the unhidden.bat.
It might need some time on pendrive/HDD if the dedicated folder contains many files. Be patient and it will close down automatically once it is done.
The batch file doesn't define the dedicated directory so that it can be more "portable"

3)Once click, it should show the real folder and something extra (files with extension like Vbs, Dll, exe, log, scr) on the pendrive root folder).
DELETE ALL OF THEM if you don't need it, especially the <RECYCLER> folder which is quite frequent to become "virus liar", and those SHORTCUTs
