can't delete files

[Vicky]

Hi,

Something really weird is going on inside my pc. I deleted several
times a temporary file I created and saved it on my deskboard. After
deleting it, I empty my wastebasket. I have done this same action no
less than 10 times. The file always comes back, during the same
session or after rebooting my machine. I can't get rid of it. What
is happening?

Regards,

Vicky

Probably that a *new* temp file is being created by the program needing it.
Right-click it and select properties next time. What is the date of
creation? If after last deletion, it's a new one.
