Make sure all instances of My Computer and Windows Explorer are closed, along with any applications that may be using the external drive or files on it.

Do you have a Norton protected recycle bin? If so, it must be disabled for the external drive.

hi, thanks for your info. However the recycle bin is not protected by norton. I click on the properties of the recyle bin but did not show the norton enable icon. Does that mean the recycle bin is not protected by norton?
