Vista - Problem deleting movie files

uh, to tell you the truth, i didnt noticed the words "quicktime movies"
::embarrassed::

maybe only one of these were making trouble, if you need to see .mov files
(which i think you need or you wouldnt have this problem) try installing
only one of those and check if the problem reappears, if it does, uninstall
and try the another

just be sure to download the very latest versions

good luck!

I had a similar problem trying to delete a .mov file saved to my desktop. All delete commands (through Windows, through the Command Prompt, etc.) simply hung and didn't work. Then I uninstalled Quicktime (which required a reboot, for some reason) and deleted the file using right-click/delete. Worked great! What a strange problem that was!

I had the same problems.
After many hours of reading forums and trying all the suggested solutions. I
still had two files left which wouldn't delete.
So I imported them into my Windows media player Libary (Movies) then I
deleted them from my libary and pc together option. And it worked.
Hope this works for too.
