Ejection Handle Pulled
I downloaded a set of construction doc's yesterday that had a few corrupt files. The plan room sent "good files" to me to replace the corrupt ones so I'm okay on that front.
When I try to delete the corrupt files however I get a message "cannot delete file: cannot read from the source file or disk". When I try to move it I get "cannot move file: cannot read from source file or disk", etc.
So I just moved my good files to another folder, labeled the folder with the corrupt files "trash" and thought I'd just let it be.
Well, when I tried to back up my laptop last night I got a similar message and the back up aborted.
So, I guess I have to figure out how to delete these files.
So, how do I?
One other note, there seems to be nothing in these files since they are listed as 0kb in size. So maybe I just have some rogue icons that I need to figure out how to delete?
Thanks in advance.
