Force Delete Locked Or Undeletable Files And Folder In Windows 7
Cannot delete file? How to delete undeletable files and folders in Windows XP, Vista and 7? To be honest, I can live with a undeletable file or folder in my computer, however, if the file or folder is located on my desktop, then it is totally unacceptable.
If you’re getting the following messages, you’ll need a special tool to unlock and delete the specific files and folders.
- Cannot delete file: Access is denied
- There has been a sharing violation
- The source or destination file may be in use
- The file is in use by another program or user
- Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use
Here is a almost complete list of freeware to force delete locked files and folders.
