How to Use Nero as Hidden Virus Remover

This is a method I found helps to remove virus files through Nero disc burning software.

Here’s the complete story,

Few days ago, one of my friends told that he felt that his computer is infected by a virus because it accesses to internet and download, upload data with no reason but it doesn’t show any virus by the anti virus program.

I told him that use another anti virus program and scan the computer again.

He had done it but the result was same.

A computer virus also a file stored in somewhere of the hard disk and if possible to find manually, simply possible to remove it manually too. But the problem is it’s very difficult to find a specific file among thousands of files and bad truth is over 90% of viruses come as hidden files which don’t support for “Show Hidden Files and Folders” command also.

Soon, I got this idea,

When it tries to add files into Nero for burning, it shows all files and folders available inside the destination what we have chosen.

I opened Nero Start Smart, clicked on “Make Data DVD” and selected “Local Disk(C :)” under “Add data to your disc” window.

There, I found four unknown files but I don’t know that what is the suspect and what is not?

So, I searched those file names on Google and found the bug.

It doesn’t need to explain the next step, I deleted the file though Nero (Nero allows to delete hidden files though own window – highlight and press “Delete” button) and the problem was solved.

P.S, this may be critical method if you had deleted a file which is essential for proper windows running. So, you must check (Google search) each unknown file before getting any action against it.

    1. Thanks for info. Apart form that, ubuntu LiveCD sessions are good to:

      1.Give a 'demo' session on a machine before installing or upgrading.
      2.checks hardware works as expected.
      3.check the look & feel of the distro.
      4.repair or preparation for awkward installations.
      5.repair/replace/install grub perhaps after (re)installing Windows.
      6.fix Windows problems on a machine that doesn't have a dual-boot
      7.anti-virus problems on a Windows system.
      8.data recovery.
      9.resizing partitions to give Ubuntu more (or less) room.
      10.adding a new partition(s) to your hard-drive for other distros or for a new Windows.
