XP copies deleted files

[Guest]

Hi there, Every time I try to delete a file (photos usually) XP is replacing
that deleted fiel with a copy. How can I prevent this from happening??

How are you deleting? Using right click menu or dragging? If yes, try
selecting the file and pressing Delete on the keyboard. Or concentrate a
little harder on your mouse maneuvers. A flaw in the user's timing can
produce duplicate files.
