deleting "undeletable" files


Recommended Posts

Posted

hi!

I have two empty files that insist they're system files, but I believe they

are the last remenents of Win-Spy which I have finally gotten rid of

(mostly!)! I can delete them in Safe Mode, but they come back eventually. Is

there a method to make them dissapear permanently???

Re: deleting "undeletable" files

 

If you had Win-Spy installed then you need to do some cleaning. Use the

manual instructions here http://www.safer-networking.com/removeWinSpy.php

There are apps that you can download that will clean it automatically but

you will likely have to pay for that privilege. The manual instructions

should work though if you follow them closely.
