yw - a couple of other things you could try.

(1) Running "chkdsk"

When you reboot, chkdsk will run and hopefully resolve the problem.
[NB May take a couple of hours or so to run if you have a large disk]
Then try deleting the file again.

(2) Deleting it from the command line.
Open up a command prompt in the folder containing the file [ start > run >

As far as we know, our computer has never had an undetected error.

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In
practice,
there is a big difference.

It's certainly worth mentioning that "Barbra Streisand"

Hello ~

I was trying to burn a movie and the file was left on my computer (ISO)
file. I tried to delete it but a message box kept popping up that read
"
Cannot delete: co Data error ( cyclic redundancy check)". Could
someone
be
kind enough to explain what this means and how I can delete it because
it
is
a rather large file. Thank you.
Highest regards ~
