• Impossible to delete some files failed to click, right click or see their location.

  I found two files but I can't do anything with them. The files are named:

  1 relevantknowledge (www.relevantknowledge.com)

  2 RelevantKnowledge

  All I can do is highlight. Can't not double click, right click, copy or move them and there is no way to tell where the files are located. The first file does not all messages at all and the second file (when it is copied) %3 NULL says: OpText.

  Go safe mode does not help.

  Is there anyway to delete these files please?

  Thank you.

  Oh, yes I used use AdwCleaner. Chrome was closed 3 times while typing this should have left on the 3rd time.

  I found and deleted the files now. These programs did not help. But, they helped to find and remove other files and keys of reg I knew, I had.

  Thanks for the help.

  After searching for ages, I found the files in \AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\History C:\Users\ (username)

• Impossible to delete some files on windows vista (read-only cannot be deselected, either)

  Right... excuse me for grammar mistakes, I'm Dutch. So there you go.

  I am a user of Windows Vista on a HP Pavilion Entertainment PC. I uninstalled World of Warcraft yesterday, and there are two files that I can't remove, no matter what I try. If I want to delete them, I first get this:

  http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/483/eerstdit.PNG

  Can I get something I can't print screen for a reason, telling me to give my permission as an administrator of the laptop. What I'm doing. Then, I get this:

  http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/1054/endandit.PNG

  Remains and stays and stays (you get the picture), no matter how many times I click on 'Retry '. Of course, when I press cancel, it stops completely, and the files are still there.

  == Fun facts (or something like that) =.

  http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/7725/mapwb.PNG

  None of the files are marked as "read-only":

  http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/6421/FileProperties.PNG

  But the plan is amrked as such... However, the name of the map can be changed. (As seen when I changed it to 'h' instead of 'World of Warcraft' to see if it would somehow effect). The names of the files, however, cannot.

  http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/9439/mapproperties.PNG

  When I try to change the map to 'no read-only', simply unchecking the box and try 'apply' or 'ok', I get the same response from the computer I get when I try to delete the files: no way I'll do .

  I tried to do since the mode without failure of the laptop with the same exact results. I am the only admin on the computer (in fact, I'm the only account outside the 'guest' one) and Yes, I am enrolled in the two-person-list, who is an administrator (which is strange in itself, because, as I said, the other account should not exist even) have the files.

  Of course I can't open the files, because the programs they were running with disappeared with uninstalling WoW.

  And this is my story. If nobody here knows, suggestions to other places that they might know are also welcome.

  Try to use one of the following free products to remove the file/folder.  Unlocker to: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtml or file Assassin http://www.malwarebytes.org/fileassassin.php (with or without forcing the deletion: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/12/27/force-delete-cannot-delete-locked-or-in-used-files-or-folders-with-fileassassin/). These programs often work when normal functions remove Vista not work correctly.

  If this does not work, it may be a permissions problem.  Try to give permission in their own right and also appropriate.  Here is information on how to do these two things:

  To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

  To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  You can change now switched to read-only (even if the main folder indicates that they are always read-only - you can access yourself as the owner).  You can keep them in read-only to other users, customers and administrators even (although they can support themselves and access, if they wish, and it is really not that you can do to stop it except protect the file with a password by using a 3rd party product.)  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

  If this does not work, try to reinstall WOW and then uninstall it with Revo http://www.snapfiles.com/reviews/revo-uninstaller/revouninstaller.html instead of using the option to uninstall Vista (Revo does a better job and can cope with these two files during the process).

  Good luck and I hope this helps!

  Unfortunately, if you see messages that say you're low disk space, you will probably need to have a bigger drive installed on your computer.  This shouldn't be very expensive.

  In the meantime, you can delete files using the disk cleanup tool in Windows (click here to see a video how-to):

  1. click on start, then click my computer
  2. right click on 'disk Local (c)' and then click on properties (at the bottom of the menu that opens).
  3. click on the button that says "Disk Cleanup".
  4. When you get to the list of the types of files to remove, if one of the lines, says "Office installation files" do not check that.  Otherwise, you can check all the boxes.
  5. Once you have ticked the boxes, click on the OK button.

  The process can take a long time.

• delete difficult files?

  I have my MacBook Pro (retina, 15 inches, end 2013) I can't delete files.  They were created in the form of archive Machine local time when the regular destination was not available.

  When I discovered them I tried to move to the trash and empty.  The files have been copied to the trash can, not moved, so I have to find a different way.  I could get all together in a single folder, "TrashMe", in my userspace at home.  I don't know much about UNIX, but I tried sudo rm, rmdir, etc..  I have deleted enough that is not longer archives of Time Machine, but much remains.  I looked down through the folder structure and found files Crashplan downstairs.  CrashPlan support helped me to get rid of people, but there's more that I can't remove.  I get error messages, some of which I'll show you.

  In the Finder, I select TrashMe, and read the information shows "You can read and write" and these users have these permissions

  everyone reading & writing

  Ritch (me) reading & writing

  everyone reading & writing

  I changed the permissions as shown, then chose to apply to the included items.  However, this does not work.  In TrashMe are files like this

  

  I have no access to these files in the Finder.  In the Terminal I can ls and cd my way through the file structure.  I find structures like

  Trash me/MobileBackups_2015-10-11-203305/Computer/2015-10-10-041640/Volume/System/Lib rary/Core Services / file: / / / users/ritch/TrashMe/MobileBackups_2015-10-11-032838/computer/2 015-10-09-080851/Volume/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/

  I think what happened is Time Machine, maybe interact somehow confused with Crashplan, created from the archives of my system files and system files have special protection so that users can't accidentally erase them.  Time Machine could recognize it as an archive, so there probably way to remove the files, but I mutilated the file structure is no longer resembles a archive.

  I think there must be a way to do this in the Terminal.  Can someone please suggest lines of command that I should type to delete these files?  There is I think of the tens of thousands of files, so please give me recursive forms

  You can connect as the root Administrator and delete the theme probably.

  Good luck.

• How can I delete a file in use by demon updater?

  How can I delete a file that says it's in use by Daemon updater.exe?

  I have a computer with a hard drive of GB 914, who recently said that it is impossible to install a program because the disk is full. While they inspected, I found that it only reported about 200 GB of usage and after you remove files non-essential, I released 57 GB of disk space.

  I made sure to show all files and installed a file tree Locator and found a log of 684 GB file but when I tried to remove it, it said that the file was not in the specified location. Then I manually found the file in system32 tree and he said that it is impossible to delete the file because it is used by daemonupdater.exe.

  can anyone help please?

• How can I delete all files stored on my computer quickly without dumping my base and paid for programs?

  I recently inherited a laptop Acer TravelMate 4220 age of 5 year from my mother, who bought his boss. The problem is that the computer is slow. I mean slow. I suspect that there are 1 million files that need to go bye-bye, and shows that I lack or use. Now I'm not what you call a computer expert; actually, I'm far from it. I tried to delete I know to be sure to delete the files, but there are still one bunch of others that I'm afraid to touch. I suspect that either the disk is too full of *, or somehow a virus or two got (I have a Norton Safe Search program installed MOM). Is it possible to safely and quickly clear the files in the computer without sending the programs installed in purgatory? More impotantly, a dummy like me he can do without damage? I thank will accept any I can get help and thanks in advance...

  The best thing for you to do is to completely reinstall Windows.  Really.

  Acer Travelmate laptops came with a hidden partition which will restore the computer to its state of factory costs, including software applications that were shipped with the computer.

  Because this computer was first held by the 'boss', however, it is possible that a COMPUTER service company everything on the hard drive replaced with a picture of the custom business that does not include the Acer erestore.  You'll just have to watch.  Also, of course, all applications that are added by the company will not be restored using the Acer application.

  This is most likely a temporary file created by a security or other Windows update.  Restart the PC and see if you can delete it then.  If this isn't the case, then you may want to assess the question to seize the property and removing against evil, it could cause if it isn't a vestige.  In addition, he is unlikely to win a significant amount of disk space, clean as you do only puts off the coast of the inevitable hard drive upgrade - if the drive is full, get a larger.

• How we prevent confirmation prompt when you delete the files of the system, i.e. thumb.db

  Whenever I try to remove a crease, a boring confirmation is poped by asking if I really want to delete a file system, I know it's just thumb.db.

  I tried the solution, but is all about how to prevent the creation of thumb.db. I want thumb.db caching to speed up the fold views, but don't want to see the dialog box remove the file system. Is there a group policy or the registry to disable the confirmation of deletion of file system?

  It is also well informed that you're going to get.  :-)  It would be the only way to disable to disassemble Windows code that handles of deleting the file change there, then replace the code in an executable file.  IOW, no.
