pictures permanently deleted are still showing when searched :(
I use the Pictures folder alot on my Vista based computer, and recently
I was
sorting through some of the pictures, deciding which ones to keep and
which
to delete. Most of these I have copied from my digital camera, and some
I
have downloaded from the web. Well, after having gone through them all,
there
is at least one in particular that I cannot seem to delete. I don't
want it
to just be sent to the Recycle Bin, but completely erased from the
computer.
I have discounted any viruses or spyware, and checked all my 'Folder'
settings, but nothing I can think of to do will remove this file from
the
folder. It also does not actually show up in normal viewing, only if i
do a
search using special variables. It only shows up if I type, "*.jpg"
into the
search bar when I am viewing the directory. I can't however do anything
with
the file. I can't move it, I can't rename it, and while it shows a
thumbnail
image of the photo, when I click on it to open it, the picture viewer
shows
no photo-representation. I also can't replace it with another file with
the
same exact name. How do I permanently remove this one file? And how did
it
get to the point of being undeletable. File properties do not show that
it is
'hidden' or 'read only'.
pls help
