File ownership problem

    Hi all, I'm new to boards.
    Appreciate any help.

    I decrypted a dvd but 2 of the files won't delete.
    Says access is denied due to ownership problems.

    They are VTS_06_0.vob and VTS_07_0.vob

    I've tried going into properties and changing the ownership but I get the same messages despite being the administrator. :confused:

    They dissapear when I try shift+delete but when I go back into the folder they reappear.

    Any ideas?

    Try closing all programs which could be holding a lock on these files ie dvd decrypter, power dvd or whatever, usually this error occurs if the file is in use, another option is to use unlocker from here, it is freeware
