When deleting data from a computer, many users faced a situation where a file remained in place, and an error dialog box popped up. Basically, the problem stems from the fact that the non-removable files were still in use by the operating system. You can use antivirus software to remove them.
Instructions
Step 1
First, you need to have an antivirus installed on your computer. Anyone with a quarantine manager will do. An example is Kaspersky, Dr. Web, Avira, Acronis, NOD32, Avast or some other antivirus. If you do not have a security program, then be sure to download and install one of the above.
Step 2
So, the deletion will be carried out using the quarantine manager. First open the program window, then find the quarantine manager (usually located in the utilities) and go into it. In the dialog box, find the files to delete. If the desired file is not visible, then in the lower block "Files of type" select the field "All files" from the list.
Step 3
Also, the file can be hidden and to make it visible, follow these steps: go to the "Start" menu, then to the "Control Panel", then to the "Folder Options" and select the "View" tab. Now find the "Additional parameters" block and drag the slider down the list, then check the box next to the "Show hidden files …" option. Select and add the selected objects to quarantine. They will be treated as suspicious files and can be deleted.
Step 4
After adding files to the quarantine manager, select them and delete them by clicking the "Delete" button.
