Remove Folder Hidden Attribute Step By Step

Yesterday I was infected by a worm called Classified.exe or Dirlock.exe. This virus disabled my task bar and gave me an empty desktop. When I try to open the task manager the virus will close it and shutdown my computer. After some hard search and troubleshoot I was recovered and fixed my computer (read it), but the virus hid all my folders its been infected. Using Folder Option and some modification to the settings I was view it, here's my drive C:

When you view the properties of its folder, ex. movie folder, you can see that you can't modify the Hidden Check Box because its disabled.


To modify this setting to each hidden folder:
Go to Start, in run type cmd and press Enter Key to display command prompt (DOS)

In command line locate your drive, ex. drive C:
Type attrib -s -h "name of folder" and press Enter Key, inclusing with double quote so that command line will read the whole name of a folder, its good when you have two or more words in folder's name.


Once the command successfully executed. The hidden attribute of this folder will remove.

Future Pinoy scientists, a Museum of Natural History

Michael Purugganan, when he was an elementary student at Union Science Elementary School in Malate, used to sneak into the National Science Development Board premises, where he would spend hours in a small museum.  "It just fascinated me. I just wanted to learn more about these things and what these people were doing there," Purruganan told GMA News Online.  "That was really what inspired me to become a scientist," said Purugganan, who is currently the Dean for Science at New York University and a world leader in evolutionary and ecological genomics.   With a new museum in the works, more young Filipinos may be inspired to become scientists.
