Can not delete no matter what - any ideas??


Recommended Posts

I have 2 folders that I can not delete nor can I delete any of the contents

in them. XP Pro keeps saying it is using it someway or another. Even after a

complete reboot, I can not. All these are is some mp3 files in folders. I

even tried using a program called killbox, but no luck. Is there something

else out there that will do the trick? Have tried everything up my sleeve.

Thanks in advance for any help or input you can provide!

You should try to boot in safe mode and then delete your folder

Try rebooting in SAFE MODE, that may then allow deletion.

The unlocker program did the trick. Thanks on the suggestions for the safe

mood route as well, but the program was easier to do.
