Keilo 0 Posted October 21, 2001 find out the path of the file, then delete it in DOS. You can't delete it in windows because it's a protected file. Share this post Link to post

lsmeg 0 Posted October 22, 2001 First, write down the exact file name. Boot up on the WinXP CD, and select recovery console. I believe you have to log in with the administrator account. When it's done booting up and logging in, type the following: del c:\windows\prefetch\FILENAME Where FILENAME is the exact name of the file you wrote down. Hope this helps.
