Why do they need "recovery"? Just plug in your usb [flash drive? disk?],
then open them!

You need to supply a lot more information, e.g.
- What sort of files are they? Filenames?
- How do you know they are infected?
- What did you open them with?
- What virus scanner do you have?
- What happens when you try to scan them with your scanner?
