I copied EXCEL files on a CD from a desktop. I now have six of them with an
..xls
extension, but about three more empty copies of each that I cannot get rid of.

Every time I log in a message at the bottom says I have six files ready to be
burned to disk. I don't want them back on a disk.

How to I solve these two problems?

This isn't an Excel question, you might get better help in a Windows
forum somewhere.

I would hazard a guess that your user abilities are minimal if you
can't even delete a file. Maybe you should discuss this with your IT
department.

You also seem to have some sort of burning process setup. Various
softwares will create a "burn folder" or a burn command. This waits
for a blank CD to be inserted and burns the files when it is, it makes
burning CDs simpler. You would have to figure out if this is just
Windows or some third-party software doing it, and get rid of the
folder/command.
