i have bought the new system and i have installed the window vista on mine system and everything working on the system very smoothly and i don’t have any issue. From last one week i have issue on the external device. When i plug in the pen drive and mine system shows i have plugged in the pen drive but mine system doesn’t show the files and folder on that. I have tried lots of time to solve this issue but it doesn’t solve mine issue. Can anyone solve mine issue and so that i can solve mine issue.

Re: Pen drive won't show files and folder on windows vista

I read your post; I was also a kind of problem in my pen drive. If you cannot access your data and displays it as a shortcut icon, then you can fix this problem. To solve the problem, follow the instructions listed below. First go to the options of the unit and select "Show hidden" and click OK to all three options to retrieve recent data.

I would like to suggest you to perform the following steps to resolve your system and so that you can solve your issue. to do this follow the steps below. First to do this you need to have the internet connection. If you have that go to the some official website and then download the AutorunExterminator, first download and save it on the desktop. When you complete the downloading now extracts the downloaded file and then makes double click on the AutorunExterminator. And after that plug in your pen drive. I hope this will help you lot to solve your issue.
