If I use the Del key or the delete item on WinExplorer menu or on an application menu, I get "Can't read from the source file or disk." And yet a picture file displays perfectly in its default app and as a thumbnail/icon in the directory and all the Details about the file display perfectly in the preview pane.
If I try to change the properties (make all the files in the folder just Archive, not Read-only), I get 'failed cyclic redundancy check' for each file in turn, but the file is A and still can't be deleted.
I really need to delete a whole bunch of files to clean up my backup disk (that has got some extraneous files on it).
Any help, most appreciated.
