Shift+Delete problems and reappearing files after deletion
Hello,
I have had a good clean copy of Windows 7 installed for some time now and right from the start I noticed a problem that until recently, I managed to tolerate.
Whenever I shift+delete a file that is an executable, batch file or similar, it returns temporarily then dissapears on it's own within minutes of being deleted.
So for example, I find a .exe then hit shift+delete and it's gone. I then refresh the window and Explorer shows it back in place. I try to run the file or modify/edit it, to test if it's just a phantom and I cannot interact with the file.
It's as if the system deletes it, but Explorer doesn't quite catch-on for a few minutes. A few minutes passes, and the file is no longer viewable in Explorer.
Alternatively, If I send it to Recycle bin or do a normal delete, it has no problems regardless of the file type.
If I use a program like TuneUp shredder, or similar "eraser" programs, it says it cannot access the file(if it's .exe .bat etcetc), but will delete other file types fine.
This feels like some type of user privilege / Explorer issue, but being that there's only one user(myself -default administrator), and UAC is off, I don't understand.
I had a previous Win 7 install with this same Win 7 retail build and never experienced this.
The only difference between now and then is that this time around I have a SSD(which from the setup and testing I have done, is working 100% as should).
