Cannot delete the file opened by system error

Hello.

I'm in serious trouble. Recently, I created a 10 GB virtual hard drive for one of my virtual machines, but it was not recognized by the virtual machine.

So, I decided to delete it, but showed an error saying that the file is open in the system. I checked all my programs and none were using it.

I'm running out of space on my drive. So, any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

OK, I managed to delete the hard drive virtual using the secure with command prompt Mode.

  • Cannot delete the file. 'trial' "impossible to find this element". It is neither located in C:\Users\master\desktop.

  • 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.

    "Disk zero" was almost full warning. I deleted the files opened to create space. However, photoshop CC, crashed before that I was able to free up space. I tried several times to re - open Photoshop CC but within 2 seconds it crashes when loading. I then decided to upgrade to the 2014 version, update. He worked twice and now repeat the same problem, I have lived before update. This only happens when I'am connected under "other user account" as I had been when the accident happened first and not as an administrator. I purged the cache, more space for performance, etc. in Admin mode, I ran permission repair in public services, but when I change the user account, photoshop crashes with seconds loading. Please notify 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7, 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

    As you can already read in your crash report - the crash has little to do with Photoshop and everything to do with your Nik/Google SelectiveTool plugin.

    Disable this plugin and contact Nik/Google for an update that fixes bugs in this plugin.

    Hi, Rejeevthomas,

    Click on the Tools menu, click Options, click the network tab and check your settings in the Streaming proxy settings area.

    If the Tools menu is not visible, press CTRL + M to display the Classic Menus.

    Notes

    • If you don't know what your proxy server settings should be, on the network tab, select a Protocol, click on configure, then select Autodetect proxy settings or use the the proxy settings of the browser (available for HTTP protocol only).

    • If you are connected to the Internet via a dial-up connection, you may not be able to choose the proxy server. For more information, see your ISP (ISP) or your network administrator.

    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 file on the remote server (Business Catalyst)

    Hi, I am trying to delete a file on my remote server (Business Catalyst), but I get an error message (log of the errors below).  I can delete the other files in the same folder.  In addition, the permissions are the same on the files I can delete and one that I can't.  I can not remove this file with FileZilla, either - get a similar error message.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.  This is a template file and I really need to be able to delete or modify it.  Thank you.

  • Cannot delete the file *.vswp

    Hello

    We have ESX 3.5 Update 2 and I can't delete the file *.vswp from the data store.

    BTW this directory ist only this file *.vswp and the virtual machine has been removed from the inventory by using Infrastructure Client.

    I have already tried:

    service mgmt-vmware restart

    but it does not help.

    Even this:

    VMware-cmd - s unregister /vmfs/volumes/vmware:storage1/TEST/TEST-461053fd.vswp

    VMControl error - 11: no such virtual machine

    make one

    PS auxfww | grep-i 'Test '.

    This should get the process ID for it.
