Poroblems with removing files and folders

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support (More info?)

I also have a problem deleting both files and folders. It says access denied.
When i look under the folders properties, it says that it doesent contains
any files or folders but im sure it does. I can´t even open the folder
because it says Access denied. And sometimes it says that it is in use buy
another program or user. But i´m sure no program of user uses the file. The
same thing happens with files. I have tried to use program like unlocker and
killbox but it doesen´t work. Both of the programs says that the folder or
file can´t be deleted. It is like the folders and the files dont exist, but
they do.

Thanks!! I've been working on this problem, posting in this and another ng,
and was stymied. This worked beautifully.

The only change I had to make is that the file name of my problem file was
"reserve[1]." If I typed in that name, I received a 'file not found'
message. I just did "del res*" and it worked like a charm.

Much appreciated.
