Heeeeeeelp : Cannot delete a file

[ixy]

Hello! Odd problem this. Got two files in a shared dir that claim to be in use but are not. Any idea how I can delete them? TIA

log on windows as an admin ( log off account then press ALT + CTRL + DEL then type user: administrator password:admin) then go to the file Right-Click properties then Security then add a user (Both Admin & Yours - then add Owner & Admin Privilages) then check all allowed options (especially full access rights <read, write>), then click OK

Then you may delete the file (N.B. process or some words might be slightly different because am not infront of a PC am tell u from memory)
