Hello, iam using Win XP Pro, with NTFS formating. I have a Folder, appears to be empty that once had some extracted files in it. It is in my Morpheus folder. Anyway, when i try to delete, rename or open the folder it simple says access denied. When i try to delete it says: "access denied, make sure disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use." Any help with this would be greatly, greatly appriciated.
