Cannot delete sound files
This is a discussion about Cannot delete sound files in the Everything New Technology category; After recording a few things from a tape deck, using my soundcard ofcourse, I can't delete some sound files I don't need. Every time I attempt to delete any of them I get a Error Deleting File or Folder error, stating that I Cannot delete : There has been a sharing violation.
After recording a few things from a tape deck, using my soundcard ofcourse, I can't delete some sound files I don't need. Every time I attempt to delete any of them I get a "Error Deleting File or Folder" error, stating that I "Cannot delete [FILE]: There has been a sharing violation. The source or destination file may be in use." That's total BS! Even when I don't have any programs running, not in the background and especially not the program I was recording with, I still get the error stated above. I have even restarted the computer without any luck. I'm running Windows 2000 with SP3 installed.
Please, I need a solution A.S.A.P. because I need the hard drive space for more recordings.

OP
It seems I can at last delete the sound files, but only when I attempt to after several hours since their creation and even then there's only a fraction of a chance it will work. The file I deleted the soonest from its creation was after 4 hours.
