I am having problems trying to delete a file. I think it is a corrupted file, this is its properties dialog:

As you see, size: 0 bytes and not informatino about creation, last modification or last use access.

This is the dialog I get if I try to delete it:

Which basically says that the file couldn't be found.

How could I delete this file without having to format the hole drive? (I have already used chkdsk in that drive with no effects)

  1. Open elevated prompt
  2. Kill explorer from taskmanager
  3. Delete the file forcefully from command-line, after browsing to that location

cd E:

del carpet*.* /f
