How to delete autorun.inf folder in your Flashdisk

Usually autorun.inf folder in our Flashdisk was created by antivirus such as Smadav.
This folder was created to prevent another autorun.inf file infected our flashdisk. This folder is useful and not dangerous but sometime was annoying because we cannot delete this folder like usually we did.
When we tried to delete this folder, it will always say, “cannot remove this folder” quite annoying I think. So, how to delete this folder? Maybe you can use this simple method to do it.
* Open Command Prompt
* The first step is delete aux folder by typing rmdir /s /q [drive]:\autorun.inf\con\aux\ and then press ENTER ([drive] is your Flashdisk location).
* Then delete con folder by typing rmdir /s /q [drive]:\autorun.inf\con\ and then press ENTER.
* The last step is delete autorun.inf folder itself, type rmdir /s /q [drive]:\autorun.inf\ press ENTER.
* Finally autorun.inf folder was successful deleted.
