I have an SD Card loaded with images, songs, documents, etc. But recently I can't access any of it. It could not be open and I think that my SD Card has a virus. How can I remove the virus? Is it even possible to scan a removable device for a virus? Please guide me on removing the virus. I do not want to lose my files. Thanks.
