How would I DELETE in Windows XP Pro 2? By this I mean there are
certain file types (extensions) that SOME of them do not delete. For
example, a WAV file with that extension does not delete when I:
1. press the delete key;
2. press the delete and the shift keys;
3. do the same as 1. and 2. above clicking on "delete" in the
list I get from right-clicking.
Thank you,
