bitdave Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Can you right click on the folder and goto properties Does it appear that the folder is the right size and contains the right number of files? Also why would try to delete your whole downloads folder :huh: and what did the error say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Please also specify what windows version you are using, and what bit comet version. Suspect ps. I was wondering why you tried to delete the folder too ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UnUsual Suspect Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 This is the infamus "Windows File Protection" that is stopping you from deleting the files/folders. WFP can be disabled (I do this on all my computers), but I don't recommend it unless you are confident in doing so. If you still want to delete this folder, then you can restart your computer in safemode, this bypasses WFP and you can delete the folder/s.
