Help! Cant Delete Corrupt File

[jenturnbull]

I d'lo aded a movie and when I tried to play it I got a message on wmp saying that it was a corrupt file. However when I try to delete it I can't. Has anyone had this propblem and can you help me solve it please.

do you get a message like " file is being used by another program or someone else"?if so disconnect from the internet and try to delete it then.If that doesn't help restart your computer and delete it again.And if that still doesn't do it i have a solution for you...but I have to look it up for you.

Got it: right-click here
and save target as. When downloaded right-click the file and choose install.
This will probably fix your problem(got it from a mod on this board)
I have it installed myself and since then never had any problem deleting files.

Will this work on MP3's as well?

I have an MP3 that won't let me delete it, When I try to delete it i get this message:



The MP3 wouldn't let me tag it with Tag & Rename either.
I tried deleting the folder, and deleting through Nero but nothing so far has worked.

:helpsmile:

if i'm right that is the avi fix for xp

use this for any os and any kind of file it shows you what is using it then you can stop what ever is using it and delete it

altho in your case it says i can't find the mp3 lollll

also try deleting it with klite but make sure klite is disconnected

No that fix is for deleting avi files only.

Are You using Windows XP Gutter?
If so try this:

Start -> Run -> Command -> cd c:&#092;YOUR FOLDER -> del YOUR FILE.mp3

This will work&#33;
