Why do not delete two files from temporary folder?

Asked By herrison 0 points N/A Posted on - 07/19/2011

I cannot delete this unnecessary file from my temporary folder. I tried to delete it, but it's not working. I also tried to copy my DVD disk, but still nothing happened.

So what is the main problem here?

Why do not delete two files from temporary folder?

Sometimes, system uses some temporary files in its processing so it resists the removal. So before you delete the files, close all your programs and then try to delete them.

This might be your Windows version problem, therefore try to delete the whole group all at once. 

Another reason is that your Antivirus locked some specific temp files and those that cannot be deleted. So disable your Antivirus and then try to delete the temporary files.

Why do not delete two files from temporary folder?

Dear Harrison,

You cannot delete two files from temporary folder because these files may be used by any of your running applications whose services might be running. You can delete those files using unlocker. You can download the software from here.

But when you unlock files with unlocker, that service or the application may stop.

You cannot copy from DVD Disk because it’s not related to this. Your disk may be copy protected. You can copy disk using ULTRA ISO or Clone DVD like software or DVD Ripper software. Try any of them.

Thank you!
