If the anti-virus program already clean your USB drive.

Then the data should be fine.

Answer 3

If the drive has a virus on it, everything that touches it will get the virus, including the USB drive. You may have to format and re-install Windows to get rid of it. Better yet, download Linux and run it...no virus ever, and hackers cannot hack Linux. Realize this...viruses are written to attack virus protection software. Now haw can Norton or any of them stay in business if the completely prevent a virus?

Answer 4

Run your usb in a sandbox, no virus or malware can be transmitted unless you specifically recover it to your drives.
