Guest John John (MVP) Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 Re: Trying to delete WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe Look at the Special Permissions and make sure that there are no "Denied" permissions in there. Make sure that restrictive permissions are not inherited from a parent folder. John Jason wrote: > I tried taking ownership of the parent directory and child objects but I > still get the error.

Guest Jason Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 Re: Trying to delete WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe I've copied off what I wanted, formatted the drive then moved back again.

Guest John John (MVP) Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 Re: Trying to delete WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe Maybe a bit of an extreme fix but it accomplished what you wanted so that is all that counts.
