- HELP... I have a directory on my hardrive named "foo". It will not
- delete. I get a weird error message-something about an incorrect pointer
- (I seem to have misplaced my notes) When I try to defrag my drive, it
- also gives me an error, and refuses to continue. I am desperate. I've
- tried using 'Delete foo force', I even tried building an lharcive with a
- new directory named 'foo' and unarched it hoping to overwrite the old one.
- Please, please, please tell me that I do not have to reformat my hard drive.
-
- Thanks in advance,
- Barry nmelen@nwlink.com
