Files Waiting to be Written to CD

[Guest dhunton]

My boss tried to copy a file from one CD to another (before I started working

here). Now, every time you boot the computer, it says that there is a file

waiting to be written to CD. But you can't delete the temporary file because

the CD is was pulled from isn't available.

 

Is there any other way to get rid of this annoying message and the

associated file?

navigate to

 

C:\Documents and Settings\udername\Local Settings\Application

Data\Microsoft\CD Burning

 

and delete the pending files.

 

Make sure show hidden and system folders is enabled if you don't see

this path.

When I do this, I get an error:

 

"Cannot delete file: Cannot read from the source file or disk."

 

Any other thoughts?

Certainly sounds like a permissions problem. So, what are the permissions?
