Rman writing to two archiving destination

Question

Hi all,
Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Product
Windows XP
I have implemented a rman backup, but I changed the archiving, data and autobackup destinations:
ALTER SYSTEM SET log_archive_dest='C:\oraclexe\Backup\archivelog\arch_%F' SCOPE=spfile;
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
STARTUP MOUNT;
ALTER DATABASE ARCHIVELOG;
ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
alter system switch logfile;
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 2 DAYS;
CONFIGURE CHANNEL 1 DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT 'C:\oraclexe\Backup\data\data_%U';
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 'C:\oraclexe\Backup\autobackup\ctl_%F';
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
But when rman backup runs it is still writing the archivelogs to the old destination (flash recovery area) and the the new dest.
Error in alert log:
ORA-17624: Failed to delete directory C:\ORACLEXE\APP\ORACLE\FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA
\XE\ARCHIVELOG\2009_10_03
ORA-27093: could not delete directory
Here is my rman script:
run{
CROSSCHECK BACKUP;
CROSSCHECK archivelog all;
CROSSCHECK COPY;
CROSSCHECK backup of database;
CROSSCHECK backup of controlfile;
delete noprompt obsolete;
DELETE noprompt backup completed before 'sysdate-2';
DELETE NOPROMPT OBSOLETE RECOVERY WINDOW OF 2 DAYS;
# delete noprompt expired archivelog all;
backup as copy tablespace system;
backup database;
backup archivelog all delete input;
Please help.

Please help.It seems you haven't disabled Flashback Recovery area
What's output of the following command?
SQL>SHOW PARAMETER db_recovery_file_destIf it returns any value, it means that you've enabled the flashback recovery area
