Problem deleting file...
« on: 20-04-2010, 05:20 PM »
I have this .exe i downloaded- a mod for Battle field 2, turns up it was the wrong version and i was disappointed. However, it wont let me delete the file. Everytime i move it off desktop OR click delete OR shield+Delete it freezes windows (explorer.exe) and wants to "Restart it" And then freezes, again. This file corrupt, or just went crazy? Its bugging me that my computer wont touch the file w/out freezing. Anyone know anyway i can get it?

(Safe mode freezes went starting due to this file on desktop so rule that out)

To delete the .exe you must first invent the universe.

Download that, check what programs are using it and click Unlock all. Then try deleting it again. Probably something's excessivly using it.

Pffft.... Who cares about what Carl Sagan says. He thinks you have to invent the universe just to make yourself a pie, what does he know.
