• Error message: cannot create the folder C:\Documents and Settings\Marlon\Local Application BVRP Software\NetWaiting\MoHlog.txt Settings\

  I recently had a problem with the virus 'Restore Windows'. I was able to get rid of it with Malwarebytes antivirus scanner, but when I turn on my computer I get this error message.
  Cannot create the folder C:\Documents and Settings\ of Settings\Marlon\Local Application BVRP Software\NetWaiting\MoHlog.txt
  
  
  I'm no expert, but I feel that my C drive disappeared, or at least has been hidden. My documents, pictures and music files are all empty. My programs (start > all programs) have been removed and deleted the shortcuts on the desktop. When I go to my computer, my personal and shared document files are not accessible. Under the description it says that they are hidden. My local disk (c) is also empty, but there is still very little space which suggests that programs and files have not been deleted.
  Is it possible to recover my files?
  Thank you

  Hello

  MoHlog.txt file is related to the software of modem on the computer, you can uninstall and reinsta it check if it works.

  Also scan your computer for any infection by virus still present on the computer using any scanner online.

  You can also try the system restore to the point before that the computer has been infected by the virus and check if it helps.

  Good luck!

• Cannot delete the folder Adobe Reader 11.0?

  While transferring adobe reader for my other HARD drive, I dropped accidentally the folder on my desktop. I thought none of cela and after that all that was done I tried to remove it from my office and now it keeps telling me I don't have permission. I am the only user and I have of course the administrator and I checked properties that tell me that everything has total control. I tried to remove it while in safe mode, I removed drive adobe completely from my computer and I still can't. Allow me to remove the files are ' identity-H ' and ' identity-V ' files in the folder of the CMap. I was able to delete the folder from anywhere except my office.

  You can't move a program installed in this way, at least not under Windows.  You must uninstall and then reinstall it on the other drive.

  Old post I know but I had this problem on several of my removable HDs, and finally I managed to remove the 'System Volume Information' folder:

  DO NOT DO THIS ON YOUR C: DRIVE OR YOUR WINDOWS HARD DRIVE!

  Right click on desktop, and then click [New-> shortcut]
  Write: cmd.exe

  Click [next] and then click [finish]

  Right click on cmd.exe icon, and then click 'run as administrator'
  Now select the external hard drive (f: in my case)

  C:\>f:

  Yes now the following (you can copy paste):
  F:\>attrib s h/s/d
  F:\>attrib - r/s/d
  F:\>Rd "System Volume Information" / s
  Are System Volume Information, you sure (Y/N)? There

  And you're DONE ;-)

  A folder are created automatically in my external hard drive.

  I can't delete the folder... whenever I try to delete an error that says "cannot find com4.
  the name of the folder has been "Recycle" I even changed the name it of "Seven", but still the same error occurs.
  I already have the permissions using the... tried Security tab the 'icacls'... also tried 'Take Ownership' method method...
  But nothing helped...
  When I tried to copy the folder on the desktop the below error appears 4 times
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  This item is not found
  It is no longer in
  H:\Seven\S-1-5-21-842925246-2025429265-682008880-1013. Check the

  "Com4" is a name reserved under Windows. You can solve the problem as follows:

  1. Open a command prompt.
  2. Type the following command and press ENTER:
     RD /s /q \\.\H:\Seven\S-1-5-21-842925246-2025429265-682008880-1013\com4

• Cannot delete the folder / tried various diets of 'ownership '.

  There is a kind of corrupted file chrome left Google in program files after that I uninstalled chrome via "Win 7 programs and features. This file won't let me reinstall chrome. This has happened after cleaning by CCleaner. Size of the file is listed as 0 bytes.

  Chrome is currently uninstalled. I can't delete the folder "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Google ' use one of the following plans:

  1. 'Ownership' context menu hack registration (works but no difference in deletability)
  2. Hidden administrator account (said again: access is denied when trying to remove it)
  3. Uncheck the 'read only' box in the properties of the folder (access denied)
  4. Properties-> Security-> Edit-> any changes to permissions (access denied)
  5. Properties-> Security-> Advanced-> Change the owner myself (supposedly it worked, but still can't remove)

  There must be some deeper meaning to delete stuff than simplistic solutions, I can find online.

  Thank you.

  If you need to delete the files or folders in a system directory, then you must first turn off UAC.

  Alternatively, if you are familiar with the controls of the console, you can remove them under an elevated command prompt.

• Cannot delete the folder of online storage

  Although I don't use SkyDrive, I thought that someone could help me with a problem I have with a cloud storage; I can't delete a file zip of my stock, which is an integral part of my Web-based e-mail program. I put a check mark in the box next to the folder (not file), press DELETE, OKAY the confirmation but nothing happens; the record remains in place. Is there a way to access storage and deleting the folder from command line? I'll be very grateful to anyone who has a suggestion. I have Windows XP Pro SP3 and IE8, which are up to date.

  Hello

  This thread has been created in the SkyDrive forum; the Microsoft moderation team has moved this thread in forum Windows XP files, records and research .

• Cannot delete the folder in Task Scheduler

  I had a few problems with the tasks does not Task Scheduler, so I'll try to remove all the tasks that I added and start over.  I managed to delete all tasks and associated files except one.  I deleted the actual task, but when I try to delete the folder, I get a message that I first need to delete all tasks in this folder... but there is no task.  How can I get this folder suppressed?  Thank you.

  dcraw999,
  You have tried this already (but I see not mentioned far)... On the right side of the Task Scheduler is the section actions. Try clicking view, and then click 'Show hidden tasks' and see if makes a task appears under the folder that you want to remove

• Cannot delete the folder of the user

  Original title:

  Help me, I can't delete the user record, even I have loged on as an administrator. I used Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit

  Please give feed back imiedietly

  If you are referring to in the record of user directly under the users profile folder, it is protected.  The only way to delete normally is to delete the account of user via the control panel / user accounts and choose to also delete user files when you are prompted.
  It would be foolish if you want to keep the user account, but delete the folder of the user.
  What you trying to accomplish?

• Cannot delete the folder "cache" which appears in the Gallery - 4 files, not location,

  Anyone else does?

  I have 4 blank photos in 'cache '. The files are all PNG files and cannot be found anywhere on the device. I continue to remove their and the folder nothing helps:

  2206smaller-background
  435smaller-background-Earth-large
  2352background
  4460background-field wide

  Numbers starting files seem to change every time that I delete them and restart the phone - just like the moment of creation and the date. Almost as if the phone is to create these files rather than them being old ghost, I can't delete files.

  I deleted the cache of the Gallery, but has no effect.

  It is beautiful Widgets.

  Go to Astro (installation if you don't have it)

  Choose the folder "Data".

  Choose the folder "beautifulwidgets".

  Choose the folder "cache".

  Then, CREATE a folder named .nomedia in this folder (make sure that you place a period before nomedia without space)

  Sometimes, you can rename a file, then delete it.

  Sometimes, you can move a file and then delete it. at the office, for example.

  Sometimes, you can remove a file after you restart your computer.

  Sometimes, a file otherwise undeletable may be deleted in Mode without failure.

  And... the following freeware can usually remove anything:
