Thats it! Some important options meaning. This might help you.
Attribute or attrib options:
-r = remove read only settings.
-h = remove hide settings.
-s = remove as system settings.
Remove Directory or rmdir options:
/S = Remove Directory with subfolder in it or it is called deltree.
/Q = A quite mode options that won’t ask for YES or NO.
The simple command to delete it is
rmdir /S /Q \\.\%drv%\autorun.inf
no need to type lpt3, con etc. just use RMDIR command it will remove the folder and it’s subfolder. And some autorun folder couldn’t delete this command coz some other disinfectanct uses this command. So if this doesn’t work here is the second trick.
rmdir /S /Q %drv%\autorun.inf
If the folder still exist uninstall any USB anti-viruses like zhengbo or what they called USB Shit Security!
Note: You have to set the read-only and system to negative.
