Hi all....

I used the \FONT directory to copy fonts to a CD with the XP CD Burner, and now \FONT and 3 fonts (I was able to delete the rest) are stuck in the temporary write-to-CD directory...writing a cd doesn't delete it and the directory or font files can't be deleted individually. Get a 'can't access' message. They end up on every cd I make!

What can I do to get rid of them??

Thanks...........LFC

 
Icrans,

You should be able to remove them as the administrator logon with a Safe Boot.

Start, Run, CMD

go to the directory containing the files.

Attrib -r -s -h *.*
del *.*
rmdir <directory name>
