Hi,
I'm running WinXP and trying to delete a file from my system. *But
when I right click and select "Delete" I get the error message:
Cannot delete .metadata\:Access is denied
Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is
not currently in use.
I have verified that the file is not write-protected and the disk is
not full. *But I can't figure out what process is using the file in
question. *Any ideas how to figure this out?
Thanks, - Dave- Hide quoted text -

Thanks for this info. Unfortunately no process came up when using the
Process Explorer tool. Any other ideas how I might remove this most
annoying file? - Dave
