Recycle Bin Error

Everytime I try to Empty (Delete all programs) my recycle bin, it says:


Cannot Remove Folder Math Advantage: Cannot find specified file
Make sure you specify the correct path and file name

 

Can someone tell me what to do to fix it?

 

What OS are you using? Xp? W98SE or what?

Can you do a search/find for folder "Math Advantage"? What is the result of the search /find?

Can you open "Math Advantage" from Windows Explorer? Are there any files in there?
I am assuming you want to delete "math Advantage" and it's contents. Is that correct? Bazza

The program was deleted long ago....I'm using Windows Xp...and I search and it says no files found...

 

1) make a copy of any desktop shortcut or file
2) then delete it
3) Afterwards try to empty the Recycle Bin.

~ if error re-occurs, do the steps # 1 and #2 then reboot and try step #3 again.

See if this simple workaround helps.

 

I have it set to delete anything without putting it in Recycle Bin...I only set it like that because those other 4 didn't delete.
