Cannot delete file in Viat 'file name too long'

[taylormsj]

I downloaded a file from limewire, and when i try to move or delete the file, i cant, a message says that it cannot be deleted because the file name is too long, however i can not re name the file - anyone have any suggestions?

I have checked to see if it a virus and it is not

Download and try Killbox.

Tried - and failed

Cut the file into the root
C:\ and try to delete it
Other option is google a tool called unlocker and try to rename or delete the file.

 

[taylormsj]

Unlocker doesnt work either

The error you get is because the path is too long.
Try moving it into the root and then delete.
or try to rename it first.

this is what options the file gives me

 

[taylormsj]

Cant re name it

 

[Shady]

get all the files you want from the shared folder out and open cmd
write without the quotes "del shared".

 

[taylormsj]

Its not in a shared folder and it cant be moved

 

[Shady]

get all the files you want from the Downloads folder out and open cmd go to Tayler
write without the quotes "del Downloads".
Is that ok now ?

If Shadys advice didn't worked, go to Safe Mode, switch off System Restore and then use Killbox.
