unhide

unhide provides you with a simple application software that serves only one goal, that of readjusting the attributes of hidden files and folders by various malware.

For starters, as technology advances on daily basis, one aspect of the IT area seems to always catch users off guard, no matter its level of novelty. This is the malware and, if your computer lacks a serious antivirus solution, then you would surely not mind that match if you ever find that the contents of your hard drive or USB flash drive seem to vanish.

If you mind, though, then it becomes a problem. First of all, antivirus software is not for the faint hearted. Anyone who thinks that is either a rookie or a complete madman. In any case, the speed of propagation of malware is reaching new heights every single day through more mediums that it did the previous day, as more and more devices are connecting to each other, thus facilitating the malicious code spread.

Amongst malware, a typical kind does not delete information it finds on your computer, but chooses to hide it from the naked, untrained eye. Moreover, it can also trigger the installation of fake antivirus and / or recovery software. By doing this, one may think that some spirit that watches over the computer has detected that data has been missing, thus it installs wonder programs that promise to get all the data back in a jiffy - if paid in full.

A genuine antivirus solution is needed in such cases and, after the scanning process exposes the threats and eliminates them so the system is once again clean, some other actions may be needed in order to unhide the contents of various drives. This particular piece of software is one of the programs that attempt to do that, although, sometimes, more advanced procedures are necessary to bring back the hidden files and folders.
