PC users create and delete files every day using familiar and familiar commands. Sometimes it happens that a number of documents simply cannot be deleted. Those who are familiar with the computer only at the user level are confused by this turn of the matter. However, there is a way out, you can clean your computer even if there is no access to the deleted files.
Instructions
Step 1
There are many reasons why you cannot delete a file from your computer. The whole point may be in the structure of the file, its purpose, operating system features, etc. Sometimes files can be occupied by another program (most often torrent or daemon tools). In this case, you just need to close the programs or restart the computer (the main thing is that this program is not at startup). If you cannot close the program in the usual way, enter the "Task Manager" and close the unnecessary process.
Step 2
Regular files are deleted as follows: check the "Read only" checkbox in the file properties.
Press the "Delete" command ("Del" key). Restart your computer if the file is not deleted.
Step 3
And the easiest way, in which you practically do not need to do anything, is to delete files using utilities. The most common and accessible one is Unlocker.
Step 4
Download the program, run it on your computer and mark the required file. Upon completion of work, the program will "report" a service message.
Step 5
You can also use File Shredder, or use Simple Shredder. The best program is the one you know how to use!
