HI Guys,

I have been testing out the backup utility in XP and accidentally left
it to run over night. The outcome is a backup file of 15GB on my hard
drive. the problem is that I am unable to delete the file. I am logged
in as administrator on the PC. Any ideas
 
Is ntbackup.exe running? If it is the file(s) will be in use.

What is the exact error meesage that you get?

To copy an error message...
When the error message pops up, click on it to make sure that it has focus.
Hit Ctrl + C to copy the message.
Use Ctrl + V or right click and select Paste to paste into a message or
Notepad or whatever.

15 GB is bigger than my hard drive.

Hi There,

I am not sure why but ntbackup.exe was not running so I run clean disk
and it is now gone ;-)
