dcs18 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Before attempting to delete it - did you try:-01.) Disabling your AV and other security system?02.) Using UnLocker to delete/rename at boot (if it cannot be done immediately as the process is locked by system?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudrax Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 03) You can check if there is any "self protection" enabled of the software of which you want to delete the file. If it is enabled - disable it and try to delete.If that fails, run a HDD tool to check the health of your HDD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shamu726 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Use Unlocker. U can use it to check which file/process is using that folder, unlock or even set it to delete after next reboot.http://www.emptyloop.com/unlocker/Another alternative is IObit Unlocker.

clubhouse Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 It that's Faronics Deep Freeze you may need to reinstall and unistall again....I think some of their files are system protected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurch234 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 If you have malwarebytes you can try the FileAssassin tool. IObit unlocker is nice. I use it when needed.There is also LockHunter which I sometimes use also http://lockhunter.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlienForce1 Posted May 4, 2013 Author Share Posted May 4, 2013 Before attempting to delete it - did you try:-01.) Disabling your AV and other security system?02.) Using UnLocker to delete/rename at boot (if it cannot be done immediately as the process is locked by system?)In Safe Mode there is no AV active in real time -> couldn`t delete with Explorer , neither with FileAssassin or UnlockerFinaly I could delete the file after reboot with UnLocker ( I started PC in normal mode -> start UnLocker -> select folder from UnLocker`s interface -> Delete -> finaly deleted the damn file ! )Thank you all for your advices !
