DPP2 can't delete non-empty folder after HD check

Post by Altimes » Tue Sep 11, 2018 09:56

I am having a bit of senior's moment here. Venerable P2 was upset by power being turned off recently. No big issue, it was showing a bunch of directories that were clearly named as "bits" of a program descriptions (eg directory name of "nd John will fin") . OK, corrupt directory, run HDD Check. Now if has a single fsck.... directory which it refuses to delete since it is non-empty.

I've ferreted through the forum for similar issues, but can see no simple response. ( I *thought* that I could browse like the T4 :roll:, how quickly we forget) . There is not much on the disk, so WIZFx the contents off and reformatting is viable if there is no straightforward way of accessing the disk and nuking the culprit directory.

TIA.

Alan.
