Many of us, if not all of us, are connected to the Internet from our computers at some point during the day. If we consider that the network is one of the primary means through which all kinds of malware and malicious software pass through, it is possible to think that we remain at risk most of the time. In such cases, of course, we have specially designed antivirus and firewalls.

But what happens when viruses are transmitted via USB sticks? In those cases, we will need another application specially developed for this type of situation, and in our opinion, UnHiDER USBFile is one of the best. Whenever you connect or disconnect a USB flash drive from your computer, we recommend you use a program of this type, at least if you want to be sure.

How it works

UnHiDER USBFile is a tool designed to be installed on Windows computers utterly free of charge. Its primary purpose is to collaborate with users on the security of their hard drives and USB flash drives. To do this, it will try to detect the presence of viruses or any other type of computer threat, with the advantage that it will do so before our computer accesses those files.

Unlike other similar systems, UnHiDER USBFile stands out precisely because it is capable of not only analyzing the presence of malware in a USB that we have just connected to our PC before it is too late but because it will also allow us to disinfect this device if we have arrived late to its analysis. This is perfect because you won't need a second software.

And if that wasn't enough, UnHiDER USBFile has an efficient file recovery method, thanks to which, once both the hard drive and the USB memory stick have been disinfected, you will be able to recover those lost documents. Of course, many users don't know this, but usually, when a flash drive or similar gets infected, your files are still on it, and we only need an application like this one to recover them.

And what deleted files is UnHiDER USBFile capable of recovering? Absolutely all of them, from our pictures and images to text documents, compressed files, executables, or anything else you had on your USB.

Another thing we liked about UnHiDER USBFile is its integration with Windows environments. If we have installed it, it will appear when we right-click on any device susceptible to its functions. In those cases, the Scan with UnHiDER USBFile option appears, allowing you to launch one of its scans without going through the previous steps.

The user interface of UnHiDER USBFile is a bit of a summary of this program, taking into account that it is simple at first glance but not so easy to use later due to the vast amount of tools that it puts at our disposal, as well as because of the absence of other language translations that are missed.

Keep in mind

In case all the features of UnHiDER USBFile that we have analyzed above do not convince you, you should know that this software also has a portable version, which saves you the installation process. This can be extremely useful in most cases, considering that you will save a lot of time if you want to work with several computers quickly.

The best

UnHiDER USBFile has many positive aspects thanks to offering all kinds of solutions related to infected USB flash drives. The most exciting thing from our point of view is that it takes care of the whole process, from scanning any USB that we have just connected to our PC and warning about its malware to detecting infectious elements already affecting the computer. And, of course, the subsequent recovery of lost files.

The worst

UnHiDER USBFile has no aspects we can frame within the worst, so we will take this specific section of your review to say that this program is not recommended for inexperienced users. The truth is that it has so many features that if we do not have some previous experience, it is possible that at the moment we feel a little lost when using it.

Rating

UnHiDER USBFile is a beautiful utility for those who usually connect several USB drives to their computer or who, on the other hand, have a Pendrive that they connect to many PCs throughout the day. If you don't want this type of procedure to become a "bring and get" virus or malware, this application will significantly help.
