Gartner Research VP, Neil McDonald & AlgoSec CTO, Prof. Avishai Wool, discuss the business-driven approach to automated security policy management, its benefits and how to align security policy management with business processes to address today's security challenges.
Windows server 2008 Cannot Delete a file.
We have a file and a folder that cannot be deleted. The security tab shows the following message. The requested security information is either unavailable or can't be displayed.
We believe the issue happened when we tried to do a selective backup but cannot be sure.
We tried to manually delete the files. Rename the files. Reboot the server. We cannot try to change ownership because we cannot get there.
Any help would be appreciated we cannot perform incremental backups because of this.

If John's suggestion doesn't work, try booting with a "live" version of Linux such as Knoppix.

You will then be able to go delete the file you want to.

"We cannot try to change ownership because we cannot get there." Exactly where can't you get? You should be able to change ownership if you are an admin.
Hi Shaun we ran your command to delete the file. We received a message that the system could not find the specified file.
I had the same issue and it was identified that RSA APT caused this. Anything similar can be the cause
