Hi all,

a couple of days ago my hard drive was infected by a virus called CIEUHU.EXE. what it did was convert all my data to shortcuts I followed the steps to remove the virus but after that my hard disk is visible but free size bar is not visible under it furthermore when I try to access it, right click on it or try to access it via disk management my laptop hangs. I am using WD 500GB External. I need help please…

It didn’t let me tell you what sort of problem it is my hard drive is plugged in right now and showing as well but as soon as i will click it the mouse cursor will start showing busy but the window of my computer will freeze as well. and it will not unfreeze until or unless i remove the hard drive.
