When i installed AVG Free last time it
removed few virus including "
copy.exe". so whenever i go to "My
Computer" (win key + E) and double click on any hard drive then i find
an error stating that (Windows cannot find "Copy.exe").
Solution:
Well the solution for this
"copy.exe" conundrum is to get rid of a file called autorun.inf in each
of the infected hard drives. here's the solution for the problem......
Make sure you or the virus
scanner is run through the infected hard drives/flash drives. to make
sure the virus files is gone.
Now, some forums said you could
just select "Show Hidden Files" from the option and this would enable
you to see "
autorun.inf" file.
Also, some entries in the "
autorun.inf"may
be legitimate. so to check the file (even when you can't see the file)
do this: Type in the infected hard drive label followed by autorun.inf
for example f:\autorun.inf
This will load autorun.inf file
in notepad.if the only entry is that incriminating copy.exe then this is
what i did. i tried to overwrite the file with the same name
autorun.inf. that din't work because autorun file was readonly. so i
saved that blank file on the desktop and simply cut it and pasted it
into the drive, then selecting the overwrite option. that should stop
that annoying windows cannot find "copy.exe" message every time you
double click into a drive. this will solve the problem!
