wacko_jacko Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 If you still can't delete the file, you can try the program MoveOnBoot (google it up) or whatever its called. Allows you to delete files that attach itself during windows bootup.
Shibathedog Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 another random idea is to go into Start>run>msconfig and disable anything that might be using it on startup Or just disable a bunch of crap so your PC starts faster.
Inky Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 Theres the other option of installing a better shell and file manager, and ditching that PoS called Explorer entirely. I for one use Aston and Directory Opus.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>i've been using Aston for a few weeks but haven't found a working crack... so I guess when my 30 day eval is up its bye bye aston.I'm gonna give Opus a try now.
NeoMaster Posted December 18, 2005 Author Posted December 18, 2005 I think it does have something to do with the filename being too long. I redownloaded the song and then I tried to move that the new file but it gave me a warning saying that it couldn't be done because of the length of the file name. Damn Mozart and his gajillion character symphonies.

Windows XP has trouble handling filenames that are ridiculously long (or at least well over the 64-character limit that the CD-ROM fomat has).
