How can I delete files off a cdr. I am using Easy CD
Creator 5 Basic lastest verision. Some of my cdr have
gotten corrupted and I want to erase everything on the
cd. Is there anyway?

Unless you mean CD-RW (re-writeable), you can't delete files from the =

Hi,
You cannot delete files from CD-R drives.

Can also be painful if you end up destroying the wrong CD.
