Showing Hello, I have this issue where the files and folders on an external device (such as an external HDD and USB) are not showing up, yet the device is visible. I only started getting this issue after I connected my USB to another computer which makes me think a virus caused this. Here's where I am at:
The drive in question is the 'STEAM GAMES (F:)' drive. It shows up in explorer as shown:
And when opened, this is what's inside the F drive:
By showing hidden files and not hiding protected operating system files, this is what shows:
What I've tried:
  • The command 'attrib -h -s -r -a /s /d F:*.*' returns this:
  • Full system scan using Anti-MalwareBytes and Avast! reveals nothing.
  • Running RKill, UsbFix, RogueKiller, and iExplore.exe does not fix the problem.
