I think that Permissions might be what Bob was referring to.
If the files are set to the System attribute, you get a warning before you
can delete the files.
----------------------
Confirm File Delete
----------------------
The file 'some_name' is a system file.
If you remove it, your computer or one of your programs may no
longer work correctly. Are you sure you want to move it to the
Recycle bin?
----------------------
The warning scares some people off.
The System attribute is available in FAT32.

Hope this helps. Let us know.

Thank you. Under NTFS, how can a file be protected from deletes? I tried
right-clicking the file with Windows Explorer, but I could not find that
check-box.

Put them on a CD, or change to NTFS. FAT32 doesn't provide the feature
you want.

Hello,
I need to secure some files from accidental deletes. The Read-Only
attribute is protecting the files from re-writes, but I can still delete
these files. Is there a way? For FAT files? Thanks.
Best Regards,
