Hi
I am trying to delete a folder but I get the error message:
"Cannot delete file: Cannot read from the source file or disk."
I also cannot move, copy or cut & paste it.
I can, in the same location, create a folder with exactly the same name
(strange!) and then delete the old folder, but when I attempt to delete the new one, it has assumed the old folder's creation date, and I get the same error message.
I tried to use the save mode also cannot delete it . i used DOS to del i get the erro msg . "d:\ file not exist " but u can see the folder still there !!
In window Xp u can see it but unable to delete it .... any files copy inside this folder can deleted only the "folder" unable to delete !....
i suspect it is a dll file .....
Appreciate all friends can help me ..
