hi
i have some folders on windows xp in my documents that will not delete
one of them i am sure is just a random folder that must have been created from a program or something but when i try deleting it it just says cannot find the folder or something like that

the other folder was one that i created, and i shared it for coldfusion server. i also cannot delete this one it says the same message, but i am able to create files in that folder.

i have booted into safe mode to delete the fodlers but it says the same thing

any help appreciated
i have no viruses as well and a very clean and up-to-date os
 
Have you tried deleting it from the command line Safe Mode?

I could not delete a file from the regualr graphical Safe Mode but could from the command-line Safe Mode.

I all else fails, plug your HD into another PC as a slave drive and then delete them.
