A little creeped out now (computer Problem)
Edited on Tue Nov-23-04 02:54 AM by Neoma
i was Organizing my Pictures on my computer.
i have them in thumbnails (so i can see what the picture is..just smaller)
And i had a folder in a folder with my politic pictures,i was moving my politic pictures to the first folder and it gave me a small warning
Cannot remove Politic:It is being Used by another person or program.
Close any Programs that might be using the file and try again.

well all the politic pictures were moved to the other folder anyways,and in that folder there was no Politic pictures in them. So i try deleting the whole folder Gave the same message sept it said Cannot Delete Politic:

Now what do i do?
I don't know any programs that could Disrupt me from deleting that folder...

i mean shit..is someone viewing (or was viewing) my anti-bush Pics? :shrug:

Btw i have Windows Xp

1. That error mesaage happens when you have a file in the folder open
any of those pics open? Like maybe your desktop background? Once you clear that, you'll see all the pics have been moved.

3. try shutting down, reboot, and see if it persists.
Might have had some kind of temporaray memory error. I have some files that I can't delete. They show an icon, but when I try to delete, it gives me a "can't find file" error message. Stupid computer, I know where the file is......
