    Corrupt files leftover from an old Scansnap program. Unable to delete.


    I have over 110,000 weird files, some with dollar signs in front. Many are variations of an old "Scansnap Organizer" file containing a exclamation point at the beginning of the filename and a ".PDF" in the filename from an old Fujitsu Scansnap program, which was accidently deleted. I am unable to delete any of these files. Examples are the one listed above, and also the ones below.I did manage to send 110,000 files to my desktop under a file named ****, but still cannot delete these! Many are listed under Configuration files. I have already contacted Fujitsu for help but they say they have no

    :)

    Corrupted file RAR

    If the archive has been created using WinRAR, why don't you try WinRAR itself? It has a built-in repair feature for repairing corrupted archive (ZIP as well as RAR). Follow the steps given below:
    • Open WinRAR application in your system.
    • Now click on File tab > Open or simply press Ctrl+O.
    • A small window "Find Archive" will pop up. Locate the corrupt RAR archive from your system directory and select it.
    • Now click Open button.
    • Click Tools tab > Repair archive or simply press Alt+R.
    • Again a small window "Repairing File name.rar" will pop up.
    • Now click Browse to select a location to save the repaired archive.
    • Check the box "Treat the corrupt archive as RAR" and click OK.
    • WinRAR will start repairing of corrupt RAR archive. Once it gets completed click Close.
    I hope the above steps will help you repair the corrupted RAR archive.

    Thanks.

    Unable to delete leftovers folder from previous windows install

    Hi,

    I'm unable to delete a folder getting the Folder Access Denied window. I have tried deleting by:

    rmdir /q /s LEFTOV~1

    but still get the error below:

    LEFTOV~1\COMMON~1\MICROS~1\DAO\dao360.dll - Access is denied.

    LEFTOV~1\COMMON~1\MICROS~1\ink\Alphabet.xml - Access is denied.

    LEFTOV~1\COMMON~1\MICROS~1\ink\ar-SA\tipresx.dll.mui - Access is denied.

    LEFTOV~1\COMMON~1\MICROS~1\ink\bg-BG\tipresx.dll.mui - Access is denied.

    LEFTOV~1\COMMON~1\MICROS~1\ink\Content.xml - Access is denied.

    LEFTOV~1\COMMON~1\MICROS~1\ink\cs-CZ\tipresx.dll.mui - Access is denied.

    there are a number of other subfolders, mainly all .DLLS or .XMLs

    I have tried taking ownership of the folder by running: takeown /f D:\Downloads\LEFTOV~1

    This does not help.

    I am open to suggestions please. Thanks
