When a computer gets affected by an NEW FOLDER virus,it will create an copy of virus porgram in the name of all the folders in the computer and hide the actual folder and its contents.So when we click a folder thinking to open the folder it actually executes the virus program.
When we use a anti-virus program it will be able to detect the virus and it will delete it,but the problem is that when virus is deleted we cannot get our folders of same name as virus back.
We can recover it by using a Linux based operationg system.This is possible because linux exectuable files are not exe files.
First we need to boot from linux and locate the folder to be recovered on hard disk.the on the directory containing folder there will be a file with same name as folder and with .lnk extension.delete it.
Now boot from windows and we will be able to see our folder back
For this purpose we can use a PUPPY Linux which is very small in size..
Hope Its useful!!!
