Hi guys, ive been doing a bit of video editing lately, and as a result have been copying avi and mpeg files around between hard drives, and network computers etc.
My problem is that soooooo often, if you do something unorthodox like trying to open a file too early, trying to delete it while still open accidentally, you get a "Cannot Delete, file in use" type error (not verbatim, but you get the idea). The most annoying thing is that no matter what i close, the error stays forever until i restart in safe mode and delete the files that way.
Does anyone know of a way to stop this from happening, or at least an easier way to get around it. Restarting in safe mode really shits me, and its happening SOOO often lately.
heeelllpp!
hehe thanks guys.
