Cannot delete file: Cannot read from the source file or disk ... FOLDE

Ok i am on a MacBook Pro with microsoft XP Pro. i downloaded a folder from DC++ and now it wont go away. Basically no matter what I try all i get is "Cannot delete file: Cannot read from the source file or disk." SOOOOOOOOOO I went into safe mode (restarting and pressing F8) still did not work. Then i went into DOS and typed "del C:\OSX-XP Files\Trash\The Sound Of Animals Fighting - Lover, The Lord Has Left Us..(Advance) - 2006\The Sound of Animals Fighting - Lover, The Lord Has Left Us.." I get the message back that says "The system cannot find the path specified." soooo now what? I am not a genius in computers but im not an idiot and no matter what i do it just wont go away. i tried the "moveonboot" app and that did nothing … i asked around my campus and everyone gives me advice but nothing works. this is not the typical file where you can just go to "ctrl+alt+delete" close anything weird that might be using it and then delete it. i tried turning off explorer.exe … this is just getting ridiculous … please help me!!!!!!!!

first iam not familair with a MAC OS. have you tried renaming it or changing the extension of the file?

this has nothing to do with mac osx … this is a problem in Microsoft XP … and yes i have tried renaming it nothing happens and i get the same error that it cant read from source

ok- its on XP. youve tried one utility.
heres 2 more:

i have tried killbox … ill try the other one thanks

i have tried both programs and both do not work … killbox does nothing after reboot and the other program says i cant delete it with the particular license i have. anyother ideas?

have you tried moving the folder, like to your desktop, then delete it. i assume DC++ isnt running.

yes DC++ is off and i have tried moving the folder, renaming it, and deleting it … all does nothing, just gives me that error

Anything here help:

To delete the undeletable file

(Hum the tune to "The Impossible Dream" while attempting this fix… )

see if this sheds any light:

or another utility:

Another approach may be this…

As I understand it this is the folder you wish to delete:

C:\OSX-XP Files\Trash\The Sound Of Animals Fighting - Lover, The Lord Has Left Us..(Advance) - 2006\The Sound of Animals Fighting - Lover, The Lord Has Left Us..

Can you move all files/folders "out of the way", then remove this folder (farther "up the tree", so to speak):

C:\OSX-XP Files\Trash\The Sound Of Animals Fighting - Lover, The Lord Has Left Us..(Advance) - 2006\The Sound of Animals Fighting - Lover, The Lord Has Left Us..



I don't know if this is possible, but something to consider.

actually "Trash" is what i am trying to delete. so i have tried that. i also tried that method going into the dos prompt. thanks

can someone please help me!!!
