Errors on creating, renaming, deleting folders in explorer
Hi
Any help greatly appreciated. This has me worried. Various things happening I will try to describe them all but I suspect they may all be related.
On trying to delete a folder told that I need administaror permissions and then that I need permissions of myself as yser on the current machine.
Noticed too that this afternoon creatign a new folder in explorer and it does not immediately appear for naming. I refresh ecploere and it appears but I am prevented from renaming it being told it is not longer present in that location. Refresh explorer agian by whatever method and I can then rename.
Some folders refusing to be deleted even though permission look exactly same as those on other folders behaving normally. Changign permissions to alolow everyone fulll control, they coudl be deleted or they coudl be deleted by deleting all the contents then folder deletion was allowed.
I created a new folder (of that I was originally trying to rename) and copied all contents across from the folder I wanted to rename. Got error messages that this could not complete, try again, skip etc. But when I looked (probably effectively a refresh again) the had in fact been deleted although in some cases was still displaying in explorer as present (error not present in this location).
I'm a bit confused as to what is going on. Is it time for a wipe and refromat of the disk?
