I have since found that the problem is with the Recycle Bin. Somehow =
the type of the file in the Recycle Folder that contains the information =
about deleted file/folders got changed from "Recycle Bin" to "Folder". =
I tried removing it by bypassing the recycle bin (holding down shift and =
pressing delete), but it says that it can't delete it because the folder =
is not empty. I was able to rename the folder and then copy the Recycle =
Bin file from the recycler on D drive. This corrected the problem of =
being able to delete files/folders in general, however the renamed =
folder still exists and I cannot get rid of it. Working from the DOS =
prompt, I am able to see the folder and change into it, but there are no =
files in it and yet I can't remove it. If I try to move it I get a =
message stating that "A duplicate file name exists, or the file cannot =
be found." Working in Explore I am not able to change into it. =
Attempts to move it will create it at the destination, but then a =
message pops up stating that it can't be deleted as it isn't empty. The =
copy can be deleted without any problems. Any other ideas?
The drive in question is an NTSF partition.

Um, you didn't happen to "reassign" your drive letters in Disk Admin did =
you?
Post.Office doesn't cause this problem on our machine...

Subject: Problem Deleting Files
I just observed a problem I have never heard of. Whenever I try to =
delete a file using explore, or by dragging it into the recycle bin, or =
by highlighting it and clicking delete, or by right clicking on it and =
selecting delete I get a message stating: "Cannot delete filename: =
Cannot find the specified path. Make sure you specify the correct =
path." It occurs with all files and/or folders. I can move them and =
edit them without a problem. This is only occuring on C drive. If I =
move a file/folder to D drive everything is OK. I can also delete the =
files from a DOS prompt.
Yesterday I updated Post.Office to the latest version and just observed =
the problem since then. Everything else seems normal. I can also empty =
the recyle bin without any problems.
If anyone has a clue or suggestion please let me know. Thanks, in =
advance.
