Deleting problem file - can't!
I have a file which may be corrupted, but I cannot delete it - the delete
dialog just hangs. Nor can I see the properties to check if there is a permissions problem - the window just hangs again. Any ideas or utilities I can try to get rid of it? Cheers Roger

Deleting problem file - Cracked it !
Thanks for your help folks - it didn't work in Windows, but safe mode and
command prompt did it! Your suggestion got me thinking on the right lines I was glad I remembered the old days of CD DIR DEL, etc etc! Roger "M" wrote in message ...
