Hello,

I want to copy/paste a file but Windows won’t let me :s

How can I "force" the copy of this file?
Configuration: Windows Vista Firefox 3.0.1

    After some research and a bit of luck ^^, I finally found it!

    A program was blocking access to the file and therefore it was impossible to move, copy, delete, etc. So I downloaded Unlocker. To copy, delete, move, etc. a file blocked by another program, you need to install the famous software (yep ^^), right-click on the concerned file, and click on Unlocker. A window appears showing which program(s) are "blocking" the file. At the bottom left, there’s a box offering to rename, delete, move or copy the file. To copy, you simply choose copy, select the destination folder, the name, and click on Save.

    I really like messages where the guy helps himself out ^^

    Yes, it's great when a guy helps himself on March 14.
    It would even be perfect if he commented to the guy who gave him advice since February 28 and if he followed up on the suggestion made by another guy since March 1...

      I'm sorry but I haven't had internet for a while and I didn't think my life would interest anyone, so I didn't mention it...
