I burned several files to a CD. Now I cannot get rid of the files that are
in queue to burn to CD. I get the error, "These files are in use by another
program." I have restarted the computer and it still does and says the same
thing. It is burning those files onto every CD I do now, and it is very
annoying. PLEASE HELP!!
 
What happens if you have a CD in the drive, you open either MyComputer or
Explorer and then double click the drive to see the contents on the disk?
Does it automatically start to copy the files to disk?
If not and you haven't tried this, either right click an empty area and
select "Delete temporary files" or click once on the file and on the menu
bar click File > Delete temporary files.

If that doesn't work open Explorer and expand the tree and delete the
files from:
C:\Documents and Settings\Your User Name\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\CD Burning

Thank you so much Brian! I skipped right down to your final step and did it
that way, seemed easier. Worked like a charm!!

Thanks!
