I am trying to move files around on my Vista Home Premium 32 bit system. I have been unable to rename, move or delete a specific folder. I have been able to move all of the contents of the folder to a new folder except a file that is called .fsLockFile. I am not sure how it got there or where it came from but at this point, my conclusion is that file is the reason I have been unable to do anything with the folder. I am the administrator and have full permissions to do anything I want with the folder. Can anyone shed some light on this for me? TY -/ME |

You must be using FolderShare and that's a folder that is being synchronized. -steve Mitigation Elf <MitigationElf@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote: >I am trying to move files around on my Vista Home Premium 32 bit system.
