Hello Cedi,

Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

I would like to know some information about the problem so that we can help you better.

What is the message full error when you say, "the file is missing?

Thank you for details on the issue.

This problem may occur because of corrupted adobe reader installation files.

I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

Method 1:
Run this Microsoft fixit and check.
Reference:
The problems that the programs cannot be installed or uninstalled
https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/mats/program_install_and_uninstall

If this does not help, use method 2.

Method 2:
Run the Adobe Reader cleaning tool and check the issue.

I hope this information helps.

Please let us know if you need more help.

Thank you

  • Cannot delete the file. Says "not not found could not find this item check the location of this object and try again."

    Cannot delete the file.  Says "not not found could not find this item check the location of this object and try again."

    I got this file from my friend got sent - is a word document, I had on their computer.  So I tried to use Disk Cleanup to delete temporary files, temporary internet files and files program downloaded.  Does not work.

    When I check the properties, there is no security tab so I can't transfer ownership in this way.

    I don't want to experiment using the way of the transfer of ownership command prompt as the name of the file is several sentences long.  I can't rename it either, of course.

    Windows 7, a week and I already have a stupid problem which has already lost an hour of my time.

    What I did was to create a Notepad file that was empty and saved in the same location as the file that won't go away.  Once registered.  I click with the right button on the new file and rename the exact name as the file problem.  Don't forget to change the file extension (ex: .doc)

    ex file problem: word.doc

    new file: word.doc

    as long as they match eachother exactly you should see the file problem disappear and once that's gone, you can delete the new file created.

  • Cannot delete the file - Windows 7 cannot check location

    Hello all,.

    After the upgrade to Windows 7, I tried to delete the Windows.old folder. However, I encountered a problem; There are two files in this folder that Windows 7 can not remove. When I try to delete them, I get an error message stating that Windows cannot locate the two files and it asks me to check their location. Is there a way to get around this?

    Thank you

    Garrick

    When the above does not work, try this:

    1. click on windows orb
    2. type cmd in the search box
    3. right click on cmd in the results menu and click on run as administrator
    4. control windows opens, must be in the directory c:\windows\system32
    5. go into c:\ do this type cd... until you reach c:\
    6 goto directory where the file to be deleted. example c:\windows.old\users
    7 type rd /s (directory name)
    8 get invites to delete y/n type y and press on enter

    After successful removal, you can check the windows Explorer and see that the file is missing.

    Example, I have a directory on my c drive named windows.old, under windows.old that I have a user directory and then several subdirectories, 1 directory happens to be named bill. For some reason any windows can not find this place and will not delete the folder. I then who follow the previous steps and remove this directory.

    So, in step 6, I would like to c:\windows.old\users goto, I then head to step 7 and enter the rd/s Bill and enter. Follow step 8 and the file is missing.

    Let us know if that helps.

  • Cannot delete the file because the file is in use

    So when I'm in a file Explorer window and I want to delete a PDF (for example) I have a "File in use" message.
    I realized that this is caused by the preview pane. No pane preview any message and deletes the file.
    I want to know how I can remove a file with the active preview pane because I want to check the contents to make sure it's the right file, I want to delete?

    Hi Guys - I was reading just return and am surprised that this problem has been dates back to February 2013 with no solutions being provided by MS - it's a real shame to MS support staff and a shame to have a support system that is unable to provide support.

    the solution is use shift + delete which gives you an option to permanently delete, so no need to cut an excerpt or find new no programs etc. installed. Just a SIMPLE SOLUTION.

  • Cannot delete the files read-only on display

    Hello

    I copied files from my PC to the view, but when they were on the PC, they were marked read-only. Now, I found that I can't remove them from the sandisk as it says that they are read-only.

    How do I change the properties of the files so I can delete them?

    Thanks for any help!

    Worto.

    I format the device if these files take up a lot of space, then resyn or copy the data (do not read that things) on the device.  Be sure to back up all data you want to save the device before formatting.

    The format option is in the settings menu system.
