Auto Delete Items On Start Up Or Shutdown?

Jul 14, 2005

I'm wanting to write a macro that will run when I start my computer or shutdown my computer. Here's the deal, I use netzero as my ISP. Netzero is constantly downloading ads that show up when I go to log on. Now the ads are using audio which is even more annoying. Anyway, I found out where the files are kept and I know the names. I'd like to write a file that auto exe's when I turn on or off the computer. It would also be nice to have a function key that would operate the auto delete. Any ideas on how to make this work?

Auto Picture File Re-size Option Lost

Nov 3, 2005

I use the standard picture handling feature that came with XP-Home on my computer in 2002. When flagging a picture and clicking on 'Email This File', I used to be given the option to reduce the picture size for the email.This size-reduction option disappeared some months ago but I wasn't too bothered as my file sizes were quite small anyway. However it's a real nuisance now that I take/file all photos at maximum resolution. Before I email a picture, especially to someone on dial-up, I now have to open Photoshop Elements and reduce the file size

Mar 20, 2007

I read the advice to start in safe mode to delete files that gave the errror message cannot delet file - source file not found. They wouldn't delete in Safe Mode either. I am trying to delete mp3 from my c drive because I have an external disk where I have my music library. I can delete them one at a time without getting the error message but not a bunch of them. Some of them I have been able to delete in a bunch.

Cannot Delete File - Read From The Source File Or Disk?

Jul 18, 2005

I cant deleted this file on my desktop. It is an empty file(0 bytes), I tried renaming it and tried deleting it in safe mode. still I get " Cannot delete file: Cannot read from the source file or disk." I did a search for the file and nothing shows! not even the actual file that is on my desktop. So used "registry cleaner" to see if it will delete it...nope. I tried safe mode again and the same problem. I ran AVG, Norton, Escan, Hijack, all came clean. nothing wrong.

for win xp the remainder of the message is: it is being used by another person or program. close any programs that might be using the file and try again. i'm sure that no other program or person is using the file. is there someway to find who the mysterious program or person is? or is it just some parameter set to yes or on or 1 or true, etc?. is there any way to clear the 'in use' status so the file or folder can actually be cleared?,

Trying To Delete File

Oct 30, 2006

Several actually. Unimportant background info: I'm reinstalling Steam onto my F: drive since my C: drive is running out of space for it.I made the backup (all but the few files I'm having trouble deleting) & uninstalled Steam already.Important background info:So now I have just a few pesky files hanging around in my C:Program FilesSteamSteamApps(email)(multiple sources from here) folder. All of them have the same CRC thing going on. "Cannot delete (Filename): Data error (cyclic redundancy check)"So thinking I might be able to get around it by deleting the files from the command prompt I go start up the little psuedo-DOS window. I don't think it would have a problem deleting the directory or files could I find them, but there's a problem.

Cannot Delete Torrent File

Aug 22, 2005

I have a folder created on my desktop that I had used to store bittorrent files. Just the torrent files themselves, not the actual file. I have no need for this folder anymore, but I'm not allowed to delete it. Whenever I try I get an error deleting file message. Under the folders properties it says there are zero bytes in the folder, although there are two hidden files inside the folder. Both files basically dont exist. They're both 0KB. The file names are CAJP5ZM6. and CA6R4JV0. I've tried booting into safe mode, that didnt work. I've tried closing out explorer.exe and trying to delete through the msdos window, didnt work. I've tried the program MoveOnBoot. Didnt work. So basically I've tried everything I could pull up a search on. There has to be a way to get rid of this folder and files, but how do you delete what is essentially already deleted? I've also tried the program dellater. Basically the same as moveonboot. Neither worked. The folder and the 2 files themselves are for some reason read-only files. When I try to change that attribute of course I get that cannot find file error message. I'm stuck, theres no file left. ZERO KB. Just two hidden icons basically. Windows doesnt notice that they're just garbage.

The error I get is: "Are you sure you want to delete these 55 items?" (Yes) "Cannot delete (long filename): the filename you specified is invalid or too long. Specify a different filename." The problem is, the recycle bin appears empty when viewed, and I've tried making sure all hidden files and folders are shown.I've tried ForceDelete (on the weird file/folder/whatever in c: ecycler) and it did not work.I've also tried removing and replacing the registry entry for the recycle bin, it did not correct the problem.Is there a way perhaps to do this in DOS?

Recycle Bin Will Not Delete File

Dec 1, 2005

I've got Windows XP on my laptop. I recently created a file on my desktop with some Mp3's in it. I moved the Mp3's to my player and deleted the contents. Therefore, the folder remained empty. When I went to delete the folder, the recycle bin would not let me put it in there. I get a message saying: "Cannot delete (name of file): cannot find the specified file. Make sure you specify the correct path or file name".
