I opened a virus, Sectuity tools and won't allow mw to delete the file. How do I?

I opened a virus, Sectity tools and has been scammed by running and paying $49.95.  I had a weird feeling and a day later did some research online and didn't know it was a scam/trojan/virus.  I tried several times to delete.  But a "yellow ex mark icon' says I need permission to delete the file.  Try to find how to do!

  • name of file is damaged and I can't rename or delete the

    I'm on a MacBook Pro OS 10.11.2.

    I use Carbon Copy Cloner to backup over a year with no problems.  She always did exactly what I expect from him and I don't know how it is related to this problem, but it is the program that revealed the problem.

    I ran a CCC backup tonight, and for the first time, I got a message saying that it had been a mistake.  I watched the news and he said that a mistake had occurred during the transfer of a file.  The file is buried several folders deep on my desktop and so far it was still named "10/12/94.  However, the file has now acquired the name "10/12/94␀ [email protected] ␀Re 4 '-it now contains special characters and it may contain invisible special characters as well.  (Note that the file is a text file of email, so the "[email protected]" in the corrupted name is probably the beginning of the e-mail address of a message in the file).

    I don't know what caused the change of name - if just CCC discovered or that it caused the problem.  I ran my last backup 6 days without any problem, and I not did something weird to my computer since then.  The file that causes the problem is that I haven't looked over the years, and I was not in four or five levels of this Bank, since I copied it on my computer from my old laptop.

    I tried to delete the file from the finder, and I get a message that "the operation cannot be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code - 50)."  I tried to rename the file from the finder, and any new name I type, I get a message that the name cannot be used.

    I tried to delete the file from the terminal with rm and I get an error "Invalid Argument".

    I tried to delete the file using the Recycle Bin option in the utility application of Onyx, and I get an error "Invalid Argument".

    I tried to delete the file using the trash it! request for utility and I get an error "Invalid Argument".

    I also tried all of these options of deletion on the record encompassing both, and they all fail in this case.

    I ran disk on the drive utility and it found no error.  I also ran check disk of Onyx and it found no error.

    I tried a variety of Google search terms and I have tried many different suggestions that came, but nothing has worked.

    Anyone have an idea how I can rename or delete this file?  After performing backup of tonight I have it now on my laptop and my support.

    Thank you.

    Have you tried to change the protection on the file? This can be done from the finder with "Get Info" or from the command-line if you are savvy of Unix. Give you access to R + W and try to rename or to delete again, you choose.

    In addition, if the file is located on the boot disk, boot from the recovery partition and run the tool again to drive from there.

    Kind regards

    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.
