How to recover the hidden files in my pen drive?



The files in your pen drive could probably be hidden due to malware.

It's easy to recover them. Just download the "AutorunExaminator" file from the following link from ccm.net and extract and run the .exe file by double clicking on it.


Then plug in your pen drive to the computer.

This will remove the autorun.inf files from the pen drive and also from the drives.

Then in the command prompt, type the following command.
attrib  -h  -r  -s  /s  /d  i:\*.* 

PS: But remember to replace "i" in the above command with the letter representing your pen drive. Here it is assumed to be "I".

After that command is executed, open your pen drive folder to find the hidden files visible! Cheers.

Then later you can run a quick scan using your antivirus software on your pen drive to remove any viruses in it.

How to import the Public Certificate of one WSO2 product to the trust store of another?

To demonstrate this point, I will use the 2 products WSO2 API Manager 2.1.0 (referred as APIM from here onwards) and WSO2 Enterprise Integrator 6.1.1 (referred as EI from here onwards). When using EI as the Business Process Server during configuration of Workflows in APIM, one step to perform is to import the public certificate of EI to the truststore of APIM [1]. So now let's see how this can be done. Step 1: Go to <EI_HOME>/repository/resources/security/ folder and execute the following keytool command. This command is used to export the public certificate of EI as a certificate file called wso2carbon.cer. Since the default keystore in EI is wso2carbon.jks, we have specified it as the keystore and the default alias is wso2carbon. Provide wso2carbon as the keystore password when prompted as it is the default password. After executing the above command from within the security folder in EI, you will see that a file with the name of wso2carbon.cer is created...
