To solve the problem Open Start menu then go to run and type cmd and press enter. You will see the command window type cd\ then type attrib -r -h -s autorun.inf and type del autorun.inf and now type the drive name C: and press enter for C: drive partition. Restart your system and your trouble will be fixed.

I saw such a behavior of flash drives, where virus was hidden in "recycler. "try to open "RECYCLER", the hidden folder , and erase everything, after restart explorer would work fine, or simply scan the whole drive with antivirus
