Deleting Movies bought on iTunes from my harddrive

    Hi,


    I have bought a couple and rented several movies on iTunes. Now I am trying to free up space on my pc harddrive but I cannot seem to delete these movies. The following message appears when I try:

    Error Deleting File or Folder

    Cannot delete movie: Access is denied.

    Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected
    and that the file is not currently in use.

    The file is definitely not in use. I have closed iTunes and am deleting from the actual file location (I have already deleted it on iTunes). The disk is not full. Perhaps Apple have write-protected the file?

    If anyone has any advice on this I would be so grateful.


    Kind regards,
    Warrior Monk

    Get Unlocker
    Another thing I've found sometimes works is if you try to right-button drag the item somewhere and choose cancel
