    ok so i down loaded a file and it turns out i dont need the fil so i went to delete it but when i right clicked on it i got this

    [​IMG]

    (the file is private so i censored the name)

    When i go to drag it into the recycling bin, nothing happens and when i go delete this file in the folder menu, once again nothing happens... i read a thread a wile ago and some one had a program that deletes files on system start up, if any one can tell me the name of this program or give some help on how to rid myself of this pesky file then plz feel free to do so.

    Try to find the folder that contains the program and delete the whole folder.Just make sure there is nothing else in the folder thats needed first.

    can you move it into another folder than delete that folder? can you rename the file to see if can delete it? have you tried safe mode?
