Some time ago when loading a new FreeBSD, I decided to back up the ports collection onto my Windows XP hardrive. Today, I decided to blow it away - but it won't go! It moved from C: drive to the recycle bin, and most got emptied out however some (97.2MB) is "sticking". No matter that I try to "empty recycle bin" it gives me a message "cannot remove folder prn: The parameter is incorrect. Everyting else in the bin was emptied but now the recycle bin seems broken when I try to delete other files - it is really weird. Could some set of Unix file permissions have thrown the Windows box for a loop? Any ideas will be appreciated.
