BackNine29 Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 I have a folder on my flash drive that I want to delete, but when I attempt, an error messages says :"cannot read from the source file" or "cannot find source file". IF I open the folder, I see the files, but cannot delete. How do I force delete the folder and files? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dencandy Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 This can happen for a number of possible reasons. Here's some of them:-You don't have Administrator rights-The file is protected-Another program or user is accessing the file.Make sure these are OK then shut down everything except Windows and try again.
