Hello, I dowloaded a small video file (sorry, I'm at work and I don't remember what file extension) that I scanned for a virus and came up clean. However, when I went to delete it, it won't let me. I right click on it and I can only move it. If I click and drag it, it looks as though it will make a shortcut instead of moving it. I left it in the folder I had it in, and was able to move the entire folder. I've never encoutered this before. Please let me know if you have any ideas. I can post later with the extension if needed. Thanks in advance.
No can do, it won't let me. In addition, when I right click, all I can do is: play it, add it to seversl lists, "open with," or "send to."
Have you restarted your computer yet? if not, restart without interent connected and try deleting again.
Okay, I restarted w/out internet and still didn't work. When I try to delete the entire folder it's in, the error is, "Cannot delete HOMECL~2.MPG: Cannot find the specified file. Make sure you specify the correct path and file name." Ideas anyone?
@vwsport80: Send its location here. I'll help you then There's a tool for deleting stubborn files, but I need to know location (path)
Sorry, I wasn't sure if there was any sarcasm in there. Right now I have it in a folder on my desktop, but I can move the folder. So, the present location would be C:\Documents and Settings\*my name*\Desktop\Folder. Thanks for the help, let me know.
No, there's no sarcasm And I have to know also what's *my name*, otherwise I can't help Is also "Folder" correct? I have to know exact path, sorry.
