    How do I delete files from one computer without deleting it from another?


    I just got a new laptop and I synced my OneDrive which downloaded everything from desktop. I plan to use this computer for school but I want to delete some files that I don't need on this computer without deleting it from my desktop. Is there a way to do that?Also, I've noticed when I move a desktop widget to a file it does it to all my devices as well.

    :)

    Cannot delete files in Temp

    There are a few files that i cant delete in
    C:\Documents and Settings\1st User\Local Settings\Temp
    which are ~DF567B.tmp, ~DFB71E.tmp, ~ROMFN_000007A8 and Perflib_Perfdata_7a8.dat. And some times there are a few more.
    What are these files and why cant they be deleted?

    I have that same problem. But the file I want to delete contains viruses too. I tried everything you said but nothing works. Could you please send me the secure deleter you wrote?
