Okay, I know it sounds daft and I hope that it is not too far out there....
Some time ago when loading a new FreeBSD, I decided to back up the ports
collection onto my Windows XP hardrive.
Today, I decided to blow it away - but it won't go! It moved from C:
drive to the recycle bin, and most got emptied out however some (97.2MB)
is "sticking". No matter that I try to "empty recycle bin" it gives
me a message "cannot remove folder prn: The parameter is incorrect.
Everyting else in the bin was emptied but now the recycle bin seems
broken when I try to delete other files - it is really weird. Could
some set of Unix file permissions have thrown the Windows box for a loop?
Any ideas will be appreciated.
Thanks, Graham/
