98662 2002-11-14 22:59:00 I have a number of zip100, to which a batch file writes data to. The first command is to remove the data from D - zip drive with this command

deltree /y d:*.*

However this will not remove the Folder called II..II..III, which contains files with similiar names. Ive tried to rename the files - no luck, renamed the folder OK. In Win Explorer, when I try to delete the file, I get error 1026 and goes no further. Whats more, when the DOS command encounters this file, it wont go further unitil I acknowledge there is fault on the disk, and Im not always there to check whats going on.

I cant Defreg or Scandisk the Zip100 in D drive.

At $25 a pop, Im reluctant to toss the Zip100.

Any ideas appreciated.
