I use a pendrive like everyone else perhaps and after I gave the pendrive to a friend of mine - I found out to my horror that there were only links to my folders and there were no folders. My heart sank bad because some of them included my corrected office work that I cannot afford to loose. I scanned with Norton - the links are gone but when I searched I found that my folders are just plain hidden.
In windows I would have right clicked the folder and got to unhide it by just clicking the unhide folder/file option. In mac I find no such option. There are a few options listed - that I came across on the internet but all discuss it being done so for library folder.
When I try the same trick for my pen drive - firstly the terminal does not recognise the path that I type (after pasting it from the Go to folder option) I have been basically going round in circles for past few hours.
The question is simple - How do I unhide the folder in my pen drive that got hidden due to virus or something.
Eagerly waiting for the reply.
