Hi all,

I have a problem in deleting file of my desktop.  I have a folder with
several sub folders in it.

When I try to delete the folder I get an error message:

"Error Deleting File or Folder"
"Cannot delete Driver~1: Cannot find the specified file."
"Make sure you specify the correct path and file name."
"OK"

Stupid XP, Of course the files and folders exist I can open the sub folders
but just cannot delete them

Does this have something to do with User Access, Profiles ?  I have one user
(administrator), guest and main administrator.

Any solutions or suggestions..

Geoff
