I downloaded a demo called Overclocked using ReGet Deluxe.
When downloaded it comes as a Zip file which also had a file accompanying it.

This is the file that I cannot delete. The extension says it’s a zip file but in properties it just says File as a file type & a size of 0 bytes.

It’s located in my storage drive “D” When trying to delete the message I get is:
This is no longer located in D:\. Verify the item’s location and try again.

Cannot move, rename or send to? It just comes up with the same message as above.

UAC is disabled.

Tried Unlocker but doesn’t work on Vista x64. (worked superb in XP)
Used Regseeker and removed any traces that came up with. (Works ok in Vista but not 100% stable?)

Tried Regedit and removed all traces of Overclocked in there.

There is got to be a way of removing files like this without everyone’s solution of formatting.
Surly it’s not as drastic as that?

Cheers for any help, Appreciated.
