Remove Virus Or Desired Files Forcefully

Most of us face the issue when some files doesn't get delete even after trying so hard.
To delete those files which are infected with virus or not getting deleted we can use command prompt.

Each file and folder have the following attributes:

1).  Archive-A
2).  Read Only-R
3).  Hidden-H
4).  System-S

-(minus) sign before an attribute it means removing attributes and +(plus) sign mean giving attributes to the file or folder.

For example, attrib -r -a -s -h file.txt  this will remove all attributes from file.txt  and attrib +r +a +s +h file.txt  will give all attributes to file.txt .
