| 876547 | 2010-04-15 22:48:00 | As mentioned, if it's the issue that myself and autechre described, safe mode won't do jack squat. You simply need to open the video file up, select it, and wait for 60-90 seconds some times before deleting it. Don't "click off it" and select something else, you simply need to wait while windows generates the thumbnails, finds out the video length etc. Speedy: dssaini mentioned it's WinXP in the very first post. An alternative and sure-fire way around it is to remove them using the command line, but that's not everyones cup of tea ;) |
