ehhh.. I need a bit help here..


I wanted to try out the
mkdir
function, but with three dots..
i typed
mkdir ...
delete ...
Which returns
Delete:9: Access Denied!

Now i went to explorer.exe ( the finder )
and went to .ccemu/saves/computer/10/
Then i tried to delete that folder, which resulted explorer to crash
I cannot delete this folder...

Why?

In CC;
Its because ROM is not allowed to be deleted?

in explorer:
i dont know

Thanks in Advance

EDIT: Derp, delete program already uses fs.delete...

try

rmdir "..."

it's probably trying to resolve it to a real path since dots in paths mean things.

EDIT: thats try it on the real computer in command prompt, not in CC.

EDIT:

wooow!
now i see that the ... folder has :o a LOT more "..." folders in it! HOOW?



I used:
cd 10
-Path ...

...\computer\10 > rmdir /s /q
the process can not access the file because it is being used by another process

And is that process, perchance, MineCraft?

If not then it's likely explorer itself, in which case a reboot should resolve that. I use Unlocker to deal with such situations myself.

I tried to open the folder with unlocker, but i can't find the "open with" for the folder i want to delete...


And btw.. Im not having any processes open that uses that folder... I shut'd down explorer itself and all other java thingys, which could use it, but it still doesn't work.

Maybe you can help me ´learning a bit more about the "Unlocker"



EDIT:

I found out how to delete it with unlocker... Thanks :) ( derpy me, i forgot to install the explorer extension ) DERP!


Thanks
