Word Document that will not delete - how to force delete?

Dinarius · 17-06-2016 04:56PM #1

I have three corrupted Word document icons on my desktop that I cannot delete ("The file cannot be found" etc.)

Word is working fine and other Word documents open and close fine.

How can I force the deletion of these document icons?

Many thanks.

Thanks.

Actually, they had disappeared after a reboot. Maybe that's the same as a refresh?

Whippersnappers don't know how to use DOS in a command window anymore. And get out of my yard.
