Mistery Path N:1\ versus Y:\

(1/7) > >>

Esgrimidor:
I have this doubt :
Mistery Path N:1\ versus Y:\

In one of my pc where I have several units C:, D:, E: F: , Y: , Z: , etc

the unit Y: is known inside the options in the windows firewall by N:1\

so in the exceptions figure :

N:1\PORTABLES\PortableApp.com Suite\PortableApps\FileZillaPortable\FileZillaPortable.exe
N:1\PORTABLES\Navegadores . Internet . Correo\Simple Port Forwarding\Simple Port Forwarding\spf.exe
N:1\DittoPrg\Ditto.exe
etc.

What this ?
In other of my pc is simply Y:\



I receive this advice :

"you have a virus here's how to fix it
load command prompt and put in "del /F /S /Q *" withougt the quotes.
reboot and your ok
reember to backup"

What the meaning of this command : del /F /S /Q

Thanks

Helpmeh:
del - deletes files
/f - Force deleting of read-only files.
/s - Delete specified files from all subdirectories.
/q - Quiet mode, do not ask if ok to delete on global wildcard
* - Wildcard. Anything goes there.

That command will force delete all files in quiet mode, including read-only files, including subdirectories.

Edit: That command is a horrible way to remove a virus, infact, it probably wouldn't. It would just delete all your files.

mat123:
worst command ever

where did yo get advice from

Esgrimidor:
okis. I see and put inmediately the link

I answered this :

Deletes one or more files.

DEL [/P] [/F] [/S] [/Q] [/A[[:]attributes]] names
ERASE [/P] [/F] [/S] [/Q] [/A[[:]attributes]] names
names   Specifies a list of one or more files or directories. Wildcards may be used to delete multiple files. If a directory is specified, all files within the directory will be deleted.
/P   Prompts for confirmation before deleting each file.
/F   Force deleting of read-only files.
/S   Delete specified files from all subdirectories.
/Q   Quiet mode, do not ask if ok to delete on global wildcard
/A   Selects files to delete based on attributes
attributes   

R  Read-only files            S  System files
H  Hidden files               A  Files ready for archiving
-  Prefix meaning not

If Command Extensions are enabled DEL and ERASE change as follows:

The display semantics of the /S switch are reversed in that it shows you only the files that are deleted, not the ones it could not find.

That Cheesepuff person knows absolutely nothing about removing viruses. For REAL virus removal go to the virus removal section of this forum.
