In English: Help! I writed some text in a txt document. After that I changed the file to an exe file. Then I opened it. Now when I am trying to delete the file it stands that the file is used by another program and cant be deleted. The file is also used by the computor every second. How do i delete it.
In Swedish: Hjälp. Jag skrev ett txt dokument med några script kommandon sen gjorde jag om filen till en exe fil. Och sedan startade jag självklart upp den.
