Unable to Delete AVI Fix.
Open regedit and go to:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.avi\shellex\PropertyHandler
Delete the value you find there.
This is due to XP (explorer in particular) trying to create a preview
for it. Now because the file is corrupted or incomplete,
it cannot read it properly, hence, it will not release the file.
This prevents explorer from doing this.
As usual, backup the registry key before deleting it.
Its ok now i found another solution sorry for wasting yuor time, i got a program that deletes the file on boot up
i usually just move everything out of the folder that said file is in and then just delete the folder with the f'ed up file in it. well, it works...
doesnt always work though.
deleting the folder works 90 percent of the time...
What program is that?Quote:
