Almost always... Sometimes even that fails.. (happened at work, the filesystem became corrupted (apparently) and 1 file gave an acces denied no matter what you tried, no security info, acces denied when taking ownership (under the system admin account..)
-Make sure you have the privileges to delete the file.
-Wait till the system checked what kind of file is (lots of times you get an error that the file is in use, but there is no application running! A system .DLL checks for the file, something like the deficons).
-If everything else fails, try to delete it via SAMBA by the Amiga side (providing the access and privileges).
A question from me now :-) :
I have the WinXP shared folder as a HD on the WinUAE side. The problem is that I can't write to the volume anymore (volume is write protected)!:-?
And I have checked the write protection before starting the emulator, but it's ignored anyway. I think this problem firstly appeared when I updated the WinUAE version by just copying/extracting the newer over the older one, and keeping the settings file.
