    The file cannot be accessed by the system


    Quoted from www.experts-exchange.com/questions/28937891/Error-0x80070780

    exe files don't show attributes. This is the point where kind of server admin is needed. I have very limited knowledge here

    Edit: more and more I read about this, and alike problems, more I see mention of backup made (often under Windows server 2012) and deduplication service disabled. Almost like a common point.

    Hi
    If I bite the bullet and reformat drive D (The HDD), should this clean up my problems?

    Many thanks for all of the suggestions from members

    If you put the same image back on, probably not. But I'm not sure, since I don't have all the info... *Smile Is this drive from some kind of backup system?

    Open one of the problematic file in hex editor and check if there is anything but zeroes in it...

    No the drive was/is purely a local drive to this machine. It was shared on the Lan but nothing else.
    Are you saying if I put the backup image back the problem will return?

    Mounting Macrium image and manually copying the files is really no different that this...
    How was it shared?
    In my opinion (I'm no expert on this field), you can restore your files by putting back the same sharing software, that was there before you clean installed this system.

    Or if you have Macrium image of previous installation (system drive)?? Make image of new system, put old one back on, restore the files (or set sharing software in another way) and then change system again..

    Edit: reread that post of yours... Was the share used by some kind of server? Then setting that server could help.

    OK will check on status of images of drive C.

    The disk D was shared purely using windows shares. The only things approaching a server are/were 3 NAS devices and a MAC.

    Which one was writing on it (that ISO files)? NAS devices were writing / reading from share? Were you syncing stuff between them?
    (I really hope some pro server admin will join this... sorry)

    The file cannot be accessed by the system

    files were copied from the D drive (HDD) to one of the NAS devices each night. The ISOs were written to the HDD as part of a rar file extraction.

    L attribute is marking Reparse points

    Since you have backup (image), you could try this:

    Did not understand "L attribute is marking Reparse points"

    Ran Diskcleanup as per your instructions

    Think it is time to call it a day and reformat the drive, I can always go back to the image for further investigation

    Very many thanks to everyone especially AndreTen

    Your files have APL attributes, P and L are not usual for everyday use. One is indicating symbolic links and other compressed backup (google for detailes)... I'm not on computer atm, so just dhort answer.
    Please, do post back about how it went
