Delete Files!!!! How do I get delete files when they tell me its being used in another application????:( :confused: |
If you can't wait, then close all apps (maybe even shut down your computer). Restart then delete. Should work. |
thanks oh and by the way/....i like you icon |
Heh. Thanks. |
I downloaded a movie from Limewire. I can't delete it. I keep being told it's being used - even after I restart. I have moved it to another folder unrelated to Limewire but STILL CAN'T DELETE IT!! And when I select it to try to delete it, my CPU usage goes up to 100%!! I want to get this cr*p off my PC but don't know how!! HELP!! |
Quit everything, and I mean everything : all applications and also disconnect from the net, but don't restart or turn off the PC/Mac (whatever you may have). Now scan the file with an anti-virus application. If nothing is found, then quit the application and try deleting it now, with everything closed. Should work. |
It certainly helps to be able to have more than one OS, on mac/pc from what I've found & been told. But not everybody would recommend it. (I have 3 Mac OS's on separate partitions [or 4 incl. Vpc]- a bit ridiculous!) On the mac it has solved similar issues & others! |
you might also want to use something like norton to wipe the files if you use that normal files go away |
