How do i get rid of an access denied file? I used the add/remove feature and
it said it the files were removed. When I did a search on files part were
still there. Any help appreciated

Hello,

Try using Unlocker to locate the culprit and to delete/rename/move the
file/folder. Its free.

You can also use it to spot the process that is locking the file.
