Hi Heroes,
I'm trying to delete an .exe file. I get the message....

Cannot delete XXXXX: Access is denied
Make sure the disk is not full or write protected and that the file is not currently in use.

When I try and End the process through Windows Task Manager I get...

This is a critical system process. Task Manager cannot end this process.

Any assistance much appreciated!

Charlie C
