You can often delete it from the command prompt using the del command. Sometimes you also have to change the attributes using the Attrib command.
So try: attrib -R -S -H "c:\pathtofile\filename" del "c:\pathtofile\filename" You don't need the " around the filename unless the filename is long or has spaces in it. |
