20.4 GB 7200 rpm Hard-drive
Windows ME
Word 2000 SR-1Problem:
My Temp Folder is filled recently with over 100 temp files that I cannot delete, with the following properties:
--Temp files
--Listed as opening with Paint Shop Pro
--Date created is listed as when I turn on the computer
--0 bytes
--Files names like: CSFF7938C1-6544-4536-BA7C-00F9FD34CA6
--Attributes: Hidden, ArchiveWhen I try to delete any of the files, the following message appears:
Cannot delete (file name): Access is denied. The source file may be in use.I tried to delete them by changing the attributes, then tried in Safe Mode, without success. The first attempt in Safe Mode showed that I deleted about twenty similar files, but when I restarted in normal mode, all of the files were back in the Temp Folder.
The following message appears sometimes after closing other applications:
Mcupdate (McAfee Antivirus Update) has caused an error in Kernel 32.DLL.
Mcupdate will now close.Thank you for your help!
