Windows 10: Getting Error: Fatal: Could not create work tree dir 'folder's name in repository':No such...

Hello. My operating system is Windows 10 Home. It's default operating system when I bought my laptop from official store.

First of all, I don't know is it my real problem or not , but most probably it is write permission, I guess.

So I want to describe my problem precisely.

In three situations I encounter with this problem:

1) When I want to clone some project from Git to my laptop there is an error. So basically what I do is writing this command on CMD -> "git clone <repository name>" and getting this result -> "fatal: could not create work tree dir 'folder's name in repository': No such file or directory." I searched online for this problem on Stackoverflow.com and in answers people say that the folder that I want to clone my files dont have writing permission. But I check it and see that everything is okey, I have full access to everything. I did same things on Git bash, but same result. So even running both Git bash and CMD as an administrator gives same result.

2) As a programmer I tried to write small code on C language. The process that my program does is just creating a .txt file and writing some text inside it. But again same kind of problem. When I run program there is no any .txt file. Then I tried to create .txt file manually, but this time after running my code it didn't write any text inside it. I'm pretty sure there is no any problem on my code. Because the exact same code does what I want on other computers.

3) Sometimes after editing some file in some programs Windows doesn't let me to save it and gives error "this file doesn't exist".


So as a result of these three situations I suppose that there is something wrong with permissions on my laptop, although it shows me that I'm administrator and have full access to everything.

What can I do about this problem?

Bug: cannot rename the file/dir to a name starting with "."

Just try to create, using Explorer GUI, a new dir with the name starting with "."

Surely it will, as usually in Windows, create "New Folder" and then rename to the new name.

And the rename step fails with the error of "Rename: You must type a file name"

"md" and "move" from the command line work fine.

 

Fatal Error

I've been trying to format my system but right after it finishes formatting I get a Fatal Error during the Windows installation process. That Fatal Error is a Data Error (cyclic redundancy check). I know that it's because of my hard drives, but how do I fix this issue? I have 2 Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 250GB SATA II Hard Drives in RAID 0. Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. *Smile

 

Unable to delete a folder - Invalid folder name


Suggestion:

1. Run chkdsk x: /r to make sure that there's no HD corruption.
   x: is the drive containing the folder you want to delete.
2. Try to delete the folder again. If still does not work, go to step 3.
3. Download: Download - Linux Mint and create a bootable USB using: Rufus - Create bootable USB
4. Boot up with Linux Mint and try to delete the folder again.
   NOTE: Unlike WinPE. Linux does not have any Windows permission imposed to it so it is easier to delete.
