 * Delete the undeletable **

The other day some asked me how to delete a prg/file that had come down as a nasty and would no be deleted. The answer is:- The main reason behind this is that the explorer.exe process locks files that are in use, effectively preventing you from deleting them.

Usually, these files should not be touched, but sometimes, as above ,situations arise when you really need to erase some troublesome ones. Try the items below
 * Solution:**


 * Open a command prompt
 * Navigate to the location where the locked file is


 * Press CTRL-ALT-DEL, click on “task manager”, select the Processes tab


 * Kill the explorer.exe process via the “End Process” button


 * Go back to the command prompt and delete the file
 * Bring up the task manager windows again
 * Select file->new task
 * Type explorer.exe in the “create new task” field
 * Press OK.
