Can't delete directory on external hard drive
I have an external 1 TB hard drive. Its usually connected to an XP machine, but I can move it to a Win 7 machine. I am unable to delete a directory. I got a hint to try using the CMD window. The top of the dir list is: K:\ dir /X Volume in drive K is 1TB HD Volume Serial Number is 4C4B-7197 Directory of K:\ 02/19/2012 05:24 PM C48751~1 c4875175e0c4f6a4c9b824264d 03/30/2012 08:31 AM ENTERT~1 Entertainment I tried deleting the first directory using both long and short name. It won't go away. Any ideas?
