cannot delete file. cannot read from the source file or disk

[chevellah 0]

in the past when transfering photos from m.card to photo suite7 all jpgs went to my desktop, retransfered to the desired new folder. now time has gone by, and those old empty folders that were on my desktop/my picures are not allowing me to delete them.. i get error cannot delete. cannot read from the source file or disk. my question; is there a program that i can buy that will take care of removing unwanted folders/files form my hard drive or is there an easier solution to this annoying problem? i no longer have the original pictures on any removable hardware. thank you, chevellah

sometimes if you reboot into safe mode, files and folders that won't delete can be deleted.

 

Good cleanup utility? Try Ashampoo Winoptimizer
