Hi,

on my desktop, I have a 200MB file. It's an EPS from
illustrator. I want to delete it but I get the message
that Another program is using the file and I should close
this program. Of course nothing else that Windows is
opnned and I Restarted it many times, I'm logged of the
network and I defragmanted my disk. Nothing is working.

What else should I do ?

Thanks
 
Try deleting the file from the so-called 'Safe mode'.
It worked for me before.
If that doesn't work, you can make a DOS bootable floppy disk and boot into DOS
and delete it from there.
 
Hi,

Except that you will need a boot disk that loads NTFS drivers if you use
the NTFS file system, which by default installation you will be.

Bye,
Pete
