Ghost folder....

[Frank Smith]

This is strange.... I have a folder and do not know where it came from.
If I check the Properties of the folder, it points to a valid folder.
The contents of the ghost and the valid folder are the same.... if you
Delete a file in the ghost - it is gone in the valid folder.

I would like to Delete the ghost from my Directory Structure but "Delete" is
not an option on the Right-Click menu.
Since the names of the ghost and the valid one are close - confusion to
Users.

Can I get ride of this ghost?

Regards,
Frank

When you have a file/folder OPEN and then you go into
explorer you will see a 'Ghost' of that OPEN file - this
is the windows temp file that it uses to do its work. So
IGNORE it. When that file is CLOSED you won't see that
ghost because windows then saves the new or altered file.
Make sure you haven't opened the file and go into
explorer and navigate to its location. My guess is that
it will there alone...NO Ghost.
Good Luck
