Hi,
you may have seen the infamous Error deleting file message in Win XP.
I know one can delete the file from Cmd by end-tasking Explorer.exe.
However, my problem is compounded because Windows becomes slowwww ..as soon as I clik Ok on the Error deleting file dialog box.. its unusable untill I end-task explorer.exe and restart it again. slodown occurs even if i right click on such a file
Now it would be great if I just wanted to delete these files.. but I dont want to ! They simply wont open in any program.(they open fine in other peoples comps).
Downloaded files (mostly .avi) are fovourite target for windows .... they seem to be selected at random. Such files deleted and then copied again from LAN exibit the same behaviour again ! They wont behave even after a re-install fo windows ! And they ceratainly wont open in any program. (opening avi file in Winamp dosent cause slowdown, but it wont run).
Is this some new version of Windows File Protection I have not heard ..only thing missing is microsoft sending two goons to guard the file..
Any ideas ?
