i am not able to delete a Directory from my Pen Drive. when i trying to delete, it showing Error.
i Couldn't delete a directory in my Pen Drive. when i trying to delete that directory, it showing Error "Directory not empty" and i also tried to change Permission 700 into 777 however i failed. so i want to what logic behind this. Directory might be Corrupted or a Virus or may be something else. someone Please give solutions or suggestions.
Actually its not giving permission for delete that Folder/Directory, and its looking like a encrypted Virus as experienced by me.
So i think a Hidden Virus in it, so again a Question appear and this will be; How to Find_Out Hidden Virus in/from Folder/Directory?

Sorry, no...what makes you think that this is an 'encrypted hidden virus'. And you do realize that a flash drive is typically formatted for Windows, right?? And that Windows viruses won't work on Linux???
And none of us here are going to chase down a Facebook post...if you have errors/messages, you need to post them here. Not pictures or links to some other page. You also don't provide any details (version/distro of Linux? What you're doing to delete this (CLI on terminal? GUI through file manager?), or what error(s)/message(s) you're seeing), that would let us help you.
