Can't delete a folder

's Computer Specifications

I try to delete a folder on my Windows 2000 Adv. Server
and the error I get is: Cannot delete file: Cannot read
from the source file or Disk. The microsoft site says to
contact them with this problem. Can anyone save me some
money?

Again, try the short folder name approach. Also check the disk (chkdsk /x
/r - yes).

Usually, this error means that the folder isn't really there (at least not
as displayed).
