| 116702 | 2003-01-26 20:09:00 | These files are your "system restore" files, and Windows will block access to them. Turn off the System Restore function. That may eliminate the files, when you reboot. If not, then with Restore disabled, you will get access to the files. After you have eliminated it turn System Retore back on. Sorry if these instructions are a bit generic, but you havent given much to work on. We can only assume you are running Windows, but not which version. |
