can not delete strange char file in internet temp folder

[Guest]

I can not rename this 0 byte file. error cant read from source file or disk.
If dir/x, it will not show short name of this file. Chkdsk /f no error found.
Tried to open with paint and said c:\documents.bmp, not exist. So I made
c:\documents.bmp Now the strange file can be open with paint(blank pic) but
still can not del,rename,or move to other folder.

Tried rm -d, error filename too long.
rm -r, error 070ñ27_1a[1â†.jpg filename too long., error c:\...\M7E58X22 file
exist

any suggestion?

Run a chkdsk on the disk and try the Unix/Posix rm.exe utility.

John

sorry, tried utility again it showed but it still can not be deleted,error
code-123 filename,directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.


:

Yes, I use drag or copy and paste in property of command prompt. The second
link is unlock some file, not the case. I download utility from first link.
When I open the utility, it will not show the folder which contains the
strange file. This is the file:

C:\...\Contaent.IE5\M7E58X22\ 070ñ27_1a[1â†.jpg

The system has only one admin account which I use. If I can type this strange

:



Try deleting the folder and all its contents at the command prompt:

RD "\\?\C:\Path to Stubborn Folder and File" /s /q

If the path is long or has strange characters you can drag it from
Explorer.exe to the command prompt, that will avoid typing errors. If
you drag it from Explorer.exe to the command prompt watch for the
quotation marks, you only want one set of quotation marks in the command.

I tried wild card either ? or * it still can not be deleted. This char is

Try this in a Command Prompt (which you call "DOS"):

1. Navigate to the parent folder of the problem folder.
2. Type this command:
dir /x {Enter}
3. Make a note of the 8.3 folder name.
4. Type this command:
rd /s /q 8.3_folder name {Enter}

If you get filename too long error messages try substituting the long
folder path with a drive letter then try deleting from the substitute drive.

Use the SUBST command at a Command Prompt. Example:

subst x: "C:\Documents and Settings\Test user\My Documents\"

The folder is now mapped to drive x: You can use DEL or RD commands
against drive X:

del x:\filename.ext

rd x:\foldername /s

You can still use the switches to bypass valid name check, example:

rd \\.\x:\foldername /s

To delete the substituted drive do: subst x: /d For help on the
command do: subst /?

Hello!

How can I delete this 070ñ27_1a[1?.jpg file in internet temp folder? It
can not be deleted under the dos. How do I input unicode char from keyboard?
Thx

I followed this discussion with a degree of amusement. Since
you've put such a great deal of effort into getting rid of the
unwanted file, I thought I might as well have a go at it myself.
I used some suitable tools to create a file of the same name
as yours, then used the following method:

1. Start a Command Prompt.
2. Navigate to the folder where the file resides.
3. Type these commands:
cmd /fn
ren 07^F unwanted.txt
md xxx
move un^F xxx
rd /s /q un^F

^F stands for Ctrl+F

With this method I managed to get rid of the file without
difficulty.

 

[Guest]

For this " ren 07^F unwanted.txt" command, I rename file 07^F to file 1.txt
???(for example, the unwant file is 1.txt, xxx is a folder name)
I type in something like this? ren 07^F(ctrl-f) 1.txt
and this command
I type in like this? move un^F(ctrl-f) xxx

Could you explain more? Thanks

I think that is because this strange char
?(html char) or &#8592(numerical char reference) or 2190(unicode?)

Is a way to type it under command prompt? or type in its unicode?

Sorry, I cannot work out what you mean with your reply.
Please type the following commands ***verbatim*** and
remember that ^F stands for Ctrl+F.

cmd /fn {Enter}
ren 07^F unwanted.txt {Enter}
md xxx {Enter}
move un^F xxx {Enter}
rd /s /q un^F {Enter}


For this " ren 07^F unwanted.txt" command, I rename file 07^F to file
1.txt
???(for example, the unwant file is 1.txt, xxx is a folder name)
I type in something like this? ren 07^F(ctrl-f) 1.txt
and this command
I type in like this? move un^F(ctrl-f) xxx

Could you explain more? Thanks

Hello!

How can I delete this 070ñ27_1a[1?.jpg file in internet temp
folder?
It
can not be deleted under the dos. How do I input unicode char from
keyboard?
Thx


I followed this discussion with a degree of amusement. Since
you've put such a great deal of effort into getting rid of the
unwanted file, I thought I might as well have a go at it myself.
I used some suitable tools to create a file of the same name
as yours, then used the following method:

1. Start a Command Prompt.
2. Navigate to the folder where the file resides.
3. Type these commands:
cmd /fn
ren 07^F unwanted.txt
md xxx
move un^F xxx
rd /s /q un^F

^F stands for Ctrl+F

With this method I managed to get rid of the file without
difficulty.

Your experience is at variance with mine. I now see these
options for you:
- Live with the problem.
- Use a binary editor to repair the damage, e.g. Acronis DiskEditor.
- Use xcopy.exe to copy the partition to a different partition
while the disk is installed as a slave disk in some other PC,
making sure to exclude the offending folder.
- Reload Windows to a formatted disk.

Thx. I type in exactly the same for twice. I can see it will change to the
file name including the strange char. But when I press enter, it just show
this file name syntax error.

You're supposed to press these keys on your keyboard:

R E N {Space Bar} 0 7 Ctrl F {Space Bar} unwanted.txt {Enter}

When you press Ctrl+F then the letters "07" will expand automatically
to 070ñ27_1a[1?.jpg. If they don't then you forgot to start the
secondary Command Processor I mentioned. THIS IS COMPULSORY!

cmd /Fn
ren 07^F unwanted.txt {Enter}

after the second command ren 07^F unwanted.txt {Enter},error filename,
directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect
third command md xxx, is fine

There is no way to type in whatever character that might be. This is a
limitation of the command prompt.

directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect

Thanks for all of your help. I will try to edit file allocation table.
