I'm getting the same error message trynig to fish an old c source file out of the recycle bin!!! Anyone know why? -Greg

I downloaded netscape from the internet but it gave an error while down loading hence it was interrupted. But i can't uninstall it for it is under windows. Though i go to windows explorer to physically delete it, it gives an error "cannot delete file. File system 1026.

when i want to restore my r14 file from recycle box notice of file system error 1026 is comming and here no one knows what to do

I have the same problem. I have removed an application with ICONs left on the Desktop. Another application with short cuts left under Recycle Bin. Trying to remove these short cuts generates Delete File System error 1026. I am going to try to use scandisk utility and see if that will help to remove these files.

I have a couple of files on my desktop like this that I can't remove. The properties section of the file says that it is 0 in size, yet I can't remove it. I've tried the stuff in the microsoft support on this code but it doesn't work.
