No, it is not a shared file.
The problem is not like those listed in the Unlocker program referenced. I
delete the file or at least it appears that way.........it disappears from
the file list but re-appears at a later date. I've not really tracked
whether it re-appears after one day or two days etc. Sometimes it seems
like a number of days have passed before it reappears...but maybe I just
never noticed it..
I also wanted to note that I have two separate internal drives.....one has
the operating system on it. the other is straight hd storage. This file is
on the drive without the operating system.

If this is a "shared" folder, "unsharing" may allow you to delete it.
Otherwise, use "Unlocker."

Quite some time ago I downloaded some information which consisted of a
number of files within a folder. At a later date I started to transfer
the
information to an external drive but only some of the files transferred
because the external drive was full. It was left with some files (within
a
foler) on each drive. Later when I had room again on the external I
transferred the remaining files from the internal drive. I then deleted
the
empty folder on the internal drive.
The problem now is that the empty folder keeps returning to my internal
hard
drive. This is not causing any problems but it is annoying. I have
deleted
over an over. I even deleted the file then deleted the restore points
and
rebooted. But it keeps returning. Is there anything else that can be
looked at/done or is the only solution to remove everything from the
internal drive and reformat.
I have run Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarbytes......no issues
there.
I have Windows XP SP 3.
Thanks.
