Hi friends ,
My PC seems like infected with Virus. Yesterday , I inserted my Infected pen drive but scanned it before opening by McAfee. It removed 3 viruses. But after that , whenever I open by double clicking any folder in my PC , instead of opening , search opens. I have to use use right click -> open.
I mean Search is now default. So how to revert it ??? I have scanned my PC but no virus is found.
Please help....

Right Click and Open ur Drive...

Look for Autorun.ini in ur drive look include hidden files also.. And Shift + delete them.....

This is not the problem in drive , it happens only in folders.
There are no hidden files.

1. Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
2. Locate and then click the Default value under the following keys in the registry if this problem occurs with folders:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell
If this problem occurs with drives:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell
3. Click Modify on the Edit menu.
4. Type none in the Value data box, and then click OK.
5. Quit Registry Editor.
