Toshiba Gigastore 250 GB: problems to delete files

Hi all

I can't delete files from my Toshiba Gigastore more. Whenever I try, the following message appears: "unable to remove. Access denied. Source is probably always open. "

However, the files are not in use when I try to delete. I tried to delete after a reboot and tried as admin. Nothing works.

The problem started to occur after the Gigastore has been disconnected from the computer (hot plugout).

My OS is W2K SP4 (with the latest security updates). The GigaStore didn't work properly from the beginning, because it is not possible to disconnect the USB when the system is running (this problem is known and described in the user manual).

Howe can I overcome the problem without reformat the drive? Maybe it's possible to boot linux and delete files on the GigaStore? Is this desirable, that linux does not seem to get along well with NTFS?

Many thanks in advance,
Led

Hello

I'm not very familiar with the Toshiba Gigastore.
Well have you tried to remove the USB port on the Device Manager and then reinstall the drivers?
I have never tried this solution, but maybe this will help.
Please check for this possibility.

Good bye

  • External hard drive problem (cannot delete files)

    I have an external hard drive that I use Windows XP and I am now on Vista 64-bit. I have no problem to access the files on the disk, adding of new files or move files on the hard drive. However, I can't delete the files located on the hard drive. If I right click on the folder or file, the Remove option * literally * does not appear in the menu. I'm on the administrator account (only the account that was created).

    The problem may be somewhere around this: if I right click on a file and goto Properties, read-only is enabled. If I disabled it and save, it acts like it is the application in the directory and all its subdirectories. When I return to the properties, it is again read only. I guess that the problem lies somewhere in the present.

    Any suggestions? This has been an incredible pain for many months.

    Thank you

    Hello Yuhatn,

    Thank you for posting.  Your problem is related to the file ownership.   You will need to change the permissions of the file/folder to be able to remove it.  You can do this by right-clicking on the file/folder and selecting the Security tab.  Once there, you can change the permissions of your account regarding this file/folder.  You may need to do this for all files in a folder to be able to delete the folder.  There is a 3rd party tools that will allow you to add this feature in the right click menu.

    Please let me know if this helps you. Zack

    Hello

    The ntuser.dat files should not be deleted - it is where Windows stores the data of register etc.  These files are normally hidden, so it would be better to return to that State.  To do so, right click on each file in turn, select Properties, click the hidden check box, and then click on apply to save the change.

  • When you delete files (in Windows 7) Explorer hangs on 'calculate' the size of the files to delete. This problem also occurs in Windows Vista (out and included SP1).

    When this problem happens:
    * You try to delete files, from any folder: a folder user protected (such as your desktop), a protected windows folder (such as program files) or an unprotected folder you created yourself (for example, a folder named "test" on your C permit)
    * The problem only occurs when you try to delete files using Windows Explorer. The problem only IS NOT OCCUR when you delete the files from another system using one hand (log on to another computer, open a shared folder, for example by opening \\windows7system\c$\test and try to remove this folder).

    What's happening:
    * Explorer crashes when 'Calculating' the features of folder.

    Question:
    * Why is this happening? It seems to be a problem in Explorer, not in the delete code actually (since the problem does not occur with one hand)

    I don't know the underlying cause or how to fix it. However, something like Unlocker would work.

  • Cannot delete files from sharing

    I have a ReadyNas Duo performer 5.3.11 v2

    I have a folder that I use for saved documents. Now I am unable to delete all the files and folders in this directory. I spent in actions and reset the permissions. This has not fixed the problem. I have no user or security on the NAS.

    I noticed that there is a Beta from 2013. That would solve this problem? Or y at - it another way to fix this?

    Short answer: I had to go out for a few hours and now it works. I don't know why it broke, and now I don't know why it started working. I did reset on sharing permissions and restarted the NAS server. Maybe he had to make a pass to reset each queue (?).

    But you're just StephenB, good fishing. HTTP has been activated as a service, but not for sharing.

  • "File permission error" during deleting files on Windows 7

    Hello

    I'm running Labview 2011 and have an application that has been developed to run on Windows XP. The part of the application deletes a file from the System32 folder, and then replaces it with another version of the same file (based on a specific condition). It worked perfectly on Windows XP. Now that I've migrated to Windows 7, I changed the path to access the SysWOW64 folder, where now stands the same file. Now when I run the program, during the phase of elimination, I get the following error:

    Possible reasons:

    LabVIEW: File permission error. You do not have the correct permissions for the file.

    When I try to manually delete the file in the SysWOW64 folder, I get a popup to confirm the progress of the removal. The file is then deleted.

    Is there anyway that I can get permission to delete the file is automatically? I also tried to use the "Set permission" VI with the permission set to 511 (octal 777) but that VI also threw up the same file permission error.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Arun

    Try to run your application with the option "Run As Administrator".  Windows 7 is very restrictive on who can do what.  It's generally a bad idea that requires deleting file to a system folder.  I think you should consider using a temporary directory to avoid this problem.

  • Problem with Delete Subproperty

    I wanted to delete a global container of Station with stored results init.

    The expression I used is

    StationGlobals.StoredResults.DeleteSubProperty (Parameters.Step.Name, 0x400000)

    Parameter.Step.Name is my search string. and in the Option property tried to use 0 x 400000 substitute variable Notdeletable.

    Problem here is that it works for the execution of a few as there is no problem in removing the Subproperty for 4 or 5 times. After that it only removes subproperty.

    And the same problem, I did not see in OperatorMode. This problem only occurs in the sequence editor. I use TestStand Ver4.2.1.

    Is there no work around for this or any other option to forcefully remove the subproperty.

    Thanks in advance,

    Hi Share_Good,

    He had some problems with the file you attached. I made a few changes that seems to make it work the way you want and simplify things. I added comments to help explain changes in the file. Please let me know if you have any questions about the changes. I was unable to reproduce the error you posted, but I think that these changes could solve the problem, because one of the issues that I fixed in question is not cloning the property you obtained using GetPropertyObject before setting another property that has as it's the suproperty (property can have one of their parents If you need to make a copy and store the copy not the original). Also, make sure your Locals.StepResult is a variable of object reference as I have in the file attached sequence rather than a container.

    I also created a version of the file, SequenceFilePostResultListEntry2.seq, that uses an array of containers to store the results instead of the subproperties, allowing the stage names to be anything, including having spaces and '.' characters.

    Hope this helps,

    Hello HabibaKS ;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    I read your post about deleted files and wanted to help.

    Have you checked the trash to see if they're still there. Normally, when you delete a file, it goes right in the trash and you can restore it then, if you have not emptied the trash.

    If the file is not there, the process is much more difficult.  You will need to acquire a Windows Data Recovery application to recover the files - and even in this case, which is not guaranteed.

    My recommendation is to try to Active@File Recovery Pro.  It's free to download and try - but any serious data recovery requires purchasing a license.  If you can not afford, you can also try using "Recuva" - the very nature of the product, but not as good to recover lost files.

    Good luck
