Hi,
Some time ago, I took a full backup of the flash disk twice.
The first was on to a memory stick, then the second on to a Cf
card.
This gave me the same backup on to different devices, in case one
broke or something.
Anyway, now four months later, I thought I would delete them as
they are out of date.
So I used File Manager, Folder Manager, Erase to do this on both
the folders where I had put the backups.
In both cases though, I had to do the erase twice because the
first attempt did not complete.
I got the same messages, and same number of files/folders erased
each time.
So, having chosen the folder and assured it I did really want to
delete the folder and all it contained, it asked if I wanted to
erase a protected file.
I Answered "a".
Then I was asked about deleting a hidden file, and again I
answered "a".
I answered "y" to delete each database .cdb file individually.
First attempt I got:-
87 folders erased. 900 files erased then "The directory is not
empty."
Retried and:-
15 folders erased. 114 files erased.
I have seen this happen before, but never recorded the details.
On previous occasions, I briefly checked to see if the folders
left had anything in common, like all contained subdirectories,
or all didn't, but nothing turned up.
This is on a BT32 transplant running 7.5.20.
Regards,
Steve.
