I can't delete pdf file !!! Please help

I've got a 0 byte, errorous pdf file, which I can't delete. Neither in normal nor in safe mode.
it just says pdf is no longer on the disk.
I'm using Win vista. Any idea? Suggestions?

What I would try if I encountered the situation:
delete from a Command Prompt: del /f filename
use Unlocker

  • Fix for android "can't delete PDF files"

    4/2013 fix for Android Adobe reader complaint: "can't find delete area of adobe". Answer: you have wrong version installed. Fix: Go to "applications manage all" and the only option for your reader, on your android, is to unistall latest updates. After you unistall latest updates, you'll now have the option to download new updates and so now do that! You now should have downloaded and installed at least the new update 10.5.2 which now you still have all your old PDF's on your phone, and also the the new version, which looks just like all those youtube videos on how to delete files from your documents folder. Hope this helps all those like myself who couldn't delete PDF files and only had the option to "view" or "help".

  • I can not delete the file!Help me please.

    I use File.delete() to delete a file,
    but it didn't work,
    why?
    OS is win2k.
    Thanks

    Hi All,
    I have been chasing down the solution to this problem in more than one thread, and, for my situation at least, I have found it.
    It was stupidity on my part... that was the problem. No, I did not carelessly fail to do a close() on the stream, or any similar thing.
    No, I stupidly used the filename when I instantiated the File object with which I was to delete the file, rather than the entire path plus filename. Consequently, to the File object, the file didn't exist (you are allowed to create File objects in Java with bogus file names). This can be tested by using the exists() method of the File instance.
    Here's some code that worked for me:
         private void deleteFiles(){
              //Your mission: delete all files in subdirectory "Output" of
              //"C:/Input/".
              File inputDirectory = new File("C:/Input/");
              String[] outputFiles;
              File outputDirectory = new File(inputDirectory.getPath() +
              "\\Output\\");
              outputFiles = outputDirectory.list();
              for(int i = 0; i < outputFiles.length; i++){
                   File aFile = new File(inputDirectory.getPath() +
                   "\\Output\\" + outputFiles);
                   aFile.delete();
    I hope that this is helpful.

  • Re.problems with translator after converting pdf file.please help:-)

    Please can someone help me.
    i've converted a pdf file to a word document but it was a scanned document so word had to translate it but its come out as a load of gibberish.
    i have over a hundred pages of corrections to make because of it so i was wondering if any of you could either tell me what i could of done wrong r tell me how to do it right:-)
    thanks a bunch!!!

    You cannot use Reader to do what you want. Depending on the language of your original document, you might be able to convert the document from a scan to text with Acrobat Professional.  You can also investigate programs that are dedicated to OCR.

  • Can't Create New File, PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Hello,
    I've been trying to read the previous forums on this topic and none of the advice has worked for me. I am running Photoshop 7.0 on Windows XP. It has been running fine for several years until this week.
    I ran the Spyder 2 Suite to calibrate my laptop and LCD monitor and now the problem has arisen. One of the software's requests was to disable Adobe Gamma so I deleter my Adobe Gamma Loader.exe file from the start up folder.
    As I went to create a new file in Photoshop, nothing would happen. The whole drop down menu for File was grayed out and I would have to Ctrl+Alt+Delete to get out of Photoshop. I then uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop, as well as uninstalled the Spyder software and still can't create a new file.
    I checked and my Adobe Gamma Loader is back in the startup folder.
    I also tried deleting my printer and took down my firewall like other posts have listed but those also did not work.
    Please help!!!! I need to get back to some work asap!
    Thanks,
    Ryan

  • Can't find my files, PLEASE HELP

    I was arranging my files in external hard disk 750 GB using MacPro. I can't see some files in 3 folders now and I emptied the trash. I think the files are there as when I get informations of the hard disk; it shows that 570Gb are used and when I select all folders inside and get informations; it says that 450Gb are used. I would like to see the missing 120GB, I am sure that the files are there.

    For backups, besides being sure to use TimeMachine, setup another drive and "clone" your system drive - can be exact copy or include archiving files and changes. For this the premiere program is Carbon Copy Cloner which is now updated for OS X Yosemite.

  • Aperture 2.1.2 can't reconnect all files, please help!

    I accidentally duplicated all of my master so in all folders I have image001.cr2 and image001 (1).cr2.
    The library is now referenced at the duplicate files, those ending with (1).cr2.
    I then deleted all duplicate and consequently all the images in aperture show that little yellow triangle indicating that images are missing.
    So I go to File->manage referenced files but even if I hit the button "reconnect all" it just reconnect one image at a time.
    I don't really know how to fix this, tried many time a google search with no success!

    Marc, you might want to post this question in the Basis forum, or ask a moderator to move this thread. You'll most likely get more qualified responses there.
    SAP NetWeaver Application Server
    Also you might want to provide more details as to what kind of document you're trying to open (e.g. in what transaction). And, instead of posting the pictures, just specify the message text and/or message class and number (e.g. V1 100). The error messages are unreadable on your pictures.
    And, better yet, ask your manager to get a qualified Basis admin.

  • InDesign Crashing, Can't export PDF. Please help.

    I recently converted a 70+ document InDesign book project from CS 5.5 to CS6. I've also transitioned over to a new computer, being sure that all my plugins are the same on both computers. Somewhere along the way, I stopped being able to export a PDF of this particular book.
    I've tried everything I know to do:
    Deleted preference
    Deleted InDesign caches
    Exported all files from INDD to IDML, and then back again.
    Converted all cross references to DTP Tool x-ref Pro.
    Created a new book file and moved all my fresh INDD files there.
    Exported just a few documents at a time.
    Tried exporting with different PDF settings
    Tried exporting Interactive PDF
    Tried exporting flattened PDF...
    Sometimes, the book hangs at about 75%, other times, it crashes it I just try to export the first few chapters only. When InDesign locks up at the 75% mark, my entire computer locks up, and I get a gray screen with nothing but the InDesign splash screen. Then I have to force restart. But then I have to normally restart, as whenever I force restart, my external hard drives (where my book is located) become read only.
    I have done everything I know to export a PDF of this book. I don't know what to do... I am desparate. Anyone out there who can take a look at my crash report and interpret it for me?
    I have posted it on paste bin: http://pastebin.com/YmRXqsfc

    Well, I don't have a lotof other great ideas.
    If you have an auto-activation plugin for a font manager, remove it from the plugins folder and activate the fonts manually. Troubleshoot the fonts (see Troubleshoot fonts | Mac OS X), and clear the font caches using a utility like Cocktail.
    Export the chapter files to .idml again, and resave as new .indd files (back up the old ones, first, though, becasue with cross refs I think you'll have to overwrite the old files or they'll break (have you actually verified them to be sure they're OK now?). Make a new .indb file and add the new chapter files again.
    Beyond that you're getting into things like trying to move pages into anew document, or rebuilding chapters from tagged text exported from the current files.
