USB Show

Discover hidden files on your pendrive

USB sticks can be a very dangerous method to propagate viruses if we don't handle them with care. A strain of malware can install itself on our pendrive and remain in a hidden file or folder, waiting for us to connect it to different PCs allowing it to infect other computers. And all the later, without us even realizing as we won't notice anything out of the normal among the files stored on our portable hard drive. Thank god we can download USB Show for PC to solve this problem.

Find hidden folders in your removable units.

What is USB Show and what's it for

It's a tool that scans any memory unit, whether a USB stick or any other larger removable disc unit, searching for hidden files and folders, maybe hidden by viruses or any other user accidentally or intentionally. So using it will help us to:

• Discover folders where a virus or trojan may be hiding and waiting to infect other computers we plug our USB into.
• Find files that we thought had disappeared or had been deleted by error, but were simply hidden.
