Please Help

Ok maybe its just me, I'm sure it is, but can somebody please tell me how to permently get rid of pictures. I had taken some suggestive photo and now want them off my computer. I deleted the folder and all the pictures along with it, I then clean out my recycle bin and yet when I go into recently changed items there they are, so I tried to delete them but all I get is an error message saying that can not verify location of item please try again. And worse yet if you go into search and search for pics there they are for the whole world to see, ok maybe just ppl on my laptop but still, will some one please help me get ride of these pics?

? Have you deleted files, history, and cookies in your browser. Run CC Cleaner (free program) Run a virus and spyware search on complete hard drive. If so I would suggest a complete wipe of hard drive and reload system, and drivers. (Not for the faint of heart)

Re: Please Help

Hi Dzarillo,

In the run window on your start menu, type in "cleanmgr" (without the quotes) and run that. Follow the prompts to clean all users files and it will do a quick scan of your system. The next window that will pop up will show two tabs, one for disk cleanup and the other for "More Options". Click on the more options tab and select the cleanup button for system restore and shadow copies.

That should clean up all the stuff you are seeing.

Hope that helped!
