Delete a big file and Your Folder is gone !

[Max2002er]

Just curious. Any other MS victims?
If I delete a big file(4 GB mpeg), w2k tells it's too big to RB and asks if I would like to delete FOLDER permanently.
If I accidently choose Yes then the whole folder is gone.

Moving the file first to root is only solution known yet by me.

Never tested unconditional delete, but the problem has occured a few times and in different 2 PC's. Both running win2000 pro WS sp1.

Instead delete the file from the command prompt.

del xxxxxxxx.mpeg

If it doesn't leak oil it must be empty!!
