    How do I delete a jpg file from my desktop? Cannot delete using conventional methods.


    I have a .jpeg on my desktop that will not delete no matter what I try. Cannot drag to recycle bin, cannot right click and delete. I've tried just about everything. The dang thing will not go away.

    Cant Delete Files From Desktop

    Well, ran into a weird bug with vista, for some reason i cant delete files from desktop, this normaly happens to .exe files, the ONLY fix seems to be to KILL explorer.exe, and delete the file, then restat explorer, anybody got any idea why this happens?

    windows 10 deleted my desktop files

    Step 1 - I upgraded to Win 10 and lost all my files on Desktop.

    Step 2 - Found the files in Network - USers- Desktop

    copied all files again to desktop.

    Step 3- Restarted my machine again and lost desktop files again.

    Step 4 - As suggested did the following as listed below but dont find my files.

    • Press “Windows + E”, open This PC/Computer
    • Open Local Disc C, open Windows.old
    • Click on Users, select your User name
    • Go to desktop folder
    Cant find my files. Why is Win 10 deleted files again and again from Desktop ?.

    Deleted folder shortcut keeps reappearing on desktop

    Hello all.

    I recently deleted several shortcuts from my desktop. Now however, I'm having an odd issue.

    One of the deleted folder shortcuts keeps reappearing. I've deleted it the conventional way and with the "Shift+Delete key" method but to no avail.

    Someone told me it was OneDrive, but although I do have it installed, I've never used it.

    Any suggestions?
