I encountered this problem yesterday. I tried everything i
found in the net, on how to remove this but still there is
no luck. I can't rename and delete a folder in the drive
where i install windows. I can only add a new file but once
I add a new one, i won't be able to delete or rename it. I
have Norton Internet Security Installed on my system and i
don't think it has something to do with it. I tried the 2
methods below which i found in the net but still there is
no luck.
1. Boot in safemode using an administrative account.
2. Kill explorer's process then rename the directory using
console.
I also notice that there is a time where you can actually
rename and delete a folder but after a few moments it will
prevent me again to delete something. All directories are
infected including my documents folder. It also forbids me
to connect to my network. My coworker can't see my PC and I
can't see theirs. One more thing, I can actually copy the
files, in fact i already backed up my files inside the
protected folder but the strange thing is i still can't
rename and delete the file/folder.
The 2 method above works in renaming/deleting the
files/folders but it is a tedious job to rename all of them
in the console and safemode and also I want to know what
had caused this and why it behaves like that. I have this
theory that Windows file protection has something to do
with this or modifying the registry which can cause all the
instance of folders to be protected.
I hope you can help me find the answers. Thanks!
