I am unable to delete a folder in Explorer. I get the following message:-

Cannot delete (file name): Cannot find the specified file.
Make sure you specify the correct path and file name.

The file that is mentioned is an image file.
I have checked to ensure there are no hidden files.

Windows version? Where does this folder reside (e.g., C:\Documents and
Settings\Username\My Documents\Nasty Pix)? What does your problem have to
do with Internet Explorer?

Hello Nass,

I was able to delete the files and the folder with no problem. Thank you
very much.

You suggested running from a floppy or CD - any reason why I should not have
this tool in my list of useful programs on the dard disk?
 
Hi Michael,
The reason why I told you Run it From a Floppy or CD, because if your
Machine infected and you are going to download it on your Desktop.
You may find it difficult in runing it because the Virus or the Malwares.
Then I always like runing any Utility from a Cd or Floppy, because Programs
can take a lot of space on the disk even they are not in use.
But if you have a lot of space you can have it among your programs.
Thanks for posting back and Goog luck.
