How to delete virus (PERMANENTLY?)

Okay, so I haven't been on the blogspot for like a lots of month, and I forgot that I actually had a blog. So in this post I'm gonna talk about virus. I mean, computer virus. So, after I had entered the college, there are so many problem occurring that based on virus. The attack of virus are the most famously news that spread in the entire college.
There are a lots of virus season. The virus were a little bit weak, and it had no impact to us. It was easy to get deleted back then, by just pressing the Shift + DEL. But then, it grown more power and became more dangerous. My pen-drive often exposed to every virus on every season that they had. As a determined person, I had explored a lot of method to delete that shit and finally, I gain victory. So, I'm gonna show you the most easy to follow instruction and the right way to delete this crap.

VIRUS IN PENDRIVE
1) Plug in your pendrive to a 'clean' computer.
2) Press Windows logo + E to go to My Computer.
3) Right-click on the infected pen-drive, and click on "Scan selected files with (any of your anti-virus)"
4) If the anti-virus had successfully detected the virus, immediately remove it from its location by clicking on 'Delete' or 'Delete All'. If your anti-virus had delete it, please move on to the step 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, and 16 .
5) If your anti-virus didn't works, double-click on the pen-drive to open it. (Or on safer way by using the address bar)
Address bar
6) On the upper left of the windows, you gonna see a drop-list button called 'Organize'. Click on that and go to 'Folder and search options'
7) A pop-out with come out called as 'Folder Options'. There are three tabs, one is 'General', second is 'View', and third is 'Search'. Click on 'View'.
8) Go to the 'Advanced settings' box and look under the main 'Files and Folders' folder.
9) Under the folder, there's gonna be a sub-folders called 'Hidden files and folders', click on "Show hidden files, folders, and drives".
10) Now click on the eight check-box under 'Files and Folders' that written "Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)"
11) Click "Apply" and then "OK". Now a hidden files will appear.
12) Click on the virus shortcut and the one that are hidden, and press Ctrl + DEL to delete permanently.
13) Now you've gonna realized that your files and folders that turned into shortcut is appear as a hidden files. Sometimes all of the files and folder were placed into one main folder that are unnamed. The problem is, when you go to the properties, you can't make it unhidden, so now, I'm gonna show you a little trick using the Command Prompt attribute.
14) Click on Windows logo + R to run a program, and type in ==> cmd <==, and press Enter.
15) Write this attribute ==> ATTRIB -H -S E:\*.* /S /D /L <== into the command prompt and press Enter. Wait until another command list appear.

NOTE:
-H is stand for non-hidden files and -S is stand for non-system files. When you type this into command prompt, you are making the files unhidden and turning them into a non-system files. If you wanna hide 'em back, add plus sign (+) such as -H to +H. The * means to match any character that are hidden. The /S means apply changes to subdirectories of current directory, meanwhile /D means to apply changes to folder names and /L means to apply to symbolic link itself instead of the target of the symbolic link. The E:\ is the location in letter of your pen-drive. You can change that to your pen-drive letter, such as G:\ , K:\ , F:\ and so on.

16) Now you had successfully delete the virus on your USB Removable Disk and solve the problems to your shortcut problem.

VIRUS IN COMPUTER

2) First go to the infected location, Ctrl + DEL. Try to F5 the page and see if there's any changes. If the virus   ain't appeared, then you're safe. But if not, then move on with this instructions.
3) Go to Desktop > (your PC name, such as "USER") > appdata(please write this into your address bar. If you can't access it, try using the step 6 to 11 on how to remove virus on your pen-drive) > Roaming > Microsoft > Windows > Start Menu > Programs > Startup

4) Click on Windows logo + R and type in ==> %temp% <== and press Enter.
5) Search for the virus and try to Ctrl + DEL it. If this step success, then you're good to go, but if you get a pop-out saying that it's opened in Windows-based script host, then move on to the next step.

7) Click on "Processes" tab and search for wcscript.exe (that is the Windows-based script host) process. Once you found it, click on it and click on the button "End Process". Be sure to end any wcscript processes or the virus won't gone away.
