    Just read this thread and I thought I should mention... don't double (or triple) post, and wait 24 hours before bumping a thread. Forum Rules. ;)

    .........................................................................................................


    I need to bring everyone up to date.
    Starting from PAGE 3
    ... I ran ChkDsk
    ... I can't overwrite
    ... I have NOT run registry cleaner yet
    ... I tried deleting the files through the cmd prmt:
    cd users\V\desktop
    del (filename)
    ... doing the following did not work
    cd users\V\desktop
    dir (to determine file name and "extension")
    del (the above)
    --> leads to file cannot be found
    ... TuneUp --> IN THE PROCESS OF.
    ... tried KEGOBEER's dir /x
    it did reveal a longer name, but led to same outcome, system cannot find file.
    ... replacing spaces with underscores, didnt work.
    ... I had previously removed Vuze - didn't work.
    ... There's no way I can find the same torrent.
    ... To "COOLMINE" yeah, I know, but please keep in mind, I've literally tried every possible string. I have tried the filename without the .file.

    I"M NOT TRYING TO IGNORE ANYONE! sorry if you feel that way, i'm just trying everyone's solution!


    The file names (copied/pasted from desktop) is:
    [Torrentsworld.net] - Funny People [2009] [High-Quality] DvDrip XviD.torrent
    [Torrentsworld.net] - Funny People[2009][ENG]Best Quality XviD.torrent

    from dir /x, it is:
    _TORRE~1.TOR [Torrentsworld.net] - Funny People [2009] [High-Quality] DvDrip Xvid.torrent
    _Torre~4.TOR [Torrentsworld.net] - Funny people[2009][ENG]Best Quality xvid.torrent

    Well, firing up a linux live cd and delete the file would fix it for sure in worst case scenario :p Beats reformating
