    Default HELP! Virus altered my USB

    I call upon you tech gods of TWC, a virus has ifnected my USB and has turned all the files on it into direct access files...and I cant open them.... If any help is out there, it will be truly appreciated.
    Do check my AAR "The Proud Blood of Germania"
    Formerly known as JerichoOnlyFan.
    And my other AAR: "The Black Serpent"

    First off - confirm that this is a solid state flash drive.

    Secondly - what extension are your files showing as? Are they .exe, .bik, .XXX? in short, what are the file extensions showing as?

    What os are you running? Windows(what flavor) or Mac (again what flavor)?

    Lastly - you say they are direct access files. What program were you using to access them before?

    Are you sure that you didn't accidentally change the file associations somehow? Good luck!
