I have a number of files on my Windows 2000 server that I
cannot delete. Some of them have names with strange
characters and some do not. This stems from a problem we
had about a year ago when our RAID controller went down.
We were able to reinstall the operating system on the C:
drive and recover the data from the D: and E: drives;
however, there were some files that were corrupted and I
am unable to erase them. How can I erase them? I have
tried chkdsk /f on the volume. That did not work. Then I
tried to delete the files from the command prompt. That
did not work either. One of the files I tried to delete
was named 113?1D2?|wd. The other file I was unable to do
anything with through the command prompt since it contains
characters which do not exist on the keyboard. Does
anyone know how to get rid of these files?
