File or directory is corrupted and unreadable.

In Windows XP Home Edition, I have a folder that I can't remove. This is the message I get: C:\Program\Norton 360 is not accessible. The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable. I tried to delete it using safe, run chkdsk f... How do I get rid of it so I can install Norton360?

At first uninstall you it? Try the norton removal tool. I wouldn't install again. Its not terrible

  • Windows 7, Sysprep after getting an error "the file or directory is corrupted and unreadable."

    When I run Sysprep on this Dell Latitude E6520 with Windows 7 (x 64) professional, then boot into Windows PE to create a picture, he said "the file or directory is corrupted and unreadable."

    I made sure to restart 3 times before I ran sysprep this time because this is the 2nd time I got the error above.  Every time it reboots normally and the question obviously didn't happen until I ran sysprep.
    The last time I had to delete the partition and re - format and start over. Fortunately I took a picture of this time right front of sysprep.
    I even tried the Windows 7 installation disc to repair the MBR and the boot record, but he said he couldn't fix it, and he can't read this partition at all.
    I thought also it could be a bad drive on this computer brand new, but I ran the diagnostics on the hard drive and there are no errors.

    Buy a new HARD drive . Your HARD drive is dying:

    //
    MessageId: STATUS_IN_PAGE_ERROR
    //
    MessageText:
    //
    The instruction at 0 x %p memory referenced to 0 x % the required data has not been placed in memory due to a State of error / 0 x %x.

    Windows cannot read data from the HARD drive, that's why you got the errors.

    Hello

    I'm afraid that, as most of the troubleshooting steps have been tried before without much success, only two options remaining to recover operating systems are:

    (a) the system restore:

    System Restore helps you restore system files from your computer to an earlier point in time. As a general rule, you want to restore your computer to a restore point created before the date and time when you started noticing problems. The descriptions of the restore points are created automatically with the name of an event, such as Windows Update to install an update. System Restore returns your computer to the State it was in before the restore point that you choose.

    To learn more about how to run system restore you can follow this link given below:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/restore-system-files-and-settings

    NOTE: However, it is said that the system restore does not affect your personal information such as e-mail, documents, photos, videos, etc., but it is quite possible that some of your personal files are removed during the restoration of the system.

    During the restoration of the system, there may be errors and those errors can damage the files that are present in the system. And turn off your computer during the restore process may also lead to the loss of files. Sometimes, when the restoration of the system is down, it can lead to the loss of important files as well.

    (b) in the upgrade of the Place:

    An upgrade on the spot is the final solution before you have to reinstall the operating system.
    Note that it takes as much time to do the upgrade as to reinstall the operating system. In addition, some of your custom Windows settings may be lost through this process.

    Note: Applications that you have installed Web sites and DVD is deleted. The applications provided with your PC and applications that you have installed in the Windows store will be resettled. Windows puts a list of apps removed on your desktop after you refresh your PC.

    Hope this helps, if you need help with windows, please let us know we will be happy to help you.
