Error code on file removal

Post by movinit56 »

New to the forum. I have been actively cleaning my discs and like the product. I keep encountering an error 0x80070052 - The directory or file cannot be created.

I have searched online, in the manual and in the forum and do not see any help for this error. Hopefully someone here can help? thanks!

What settings are you using for File Removal?
Recycle Bin? Move / Copy? ... ?

> I keep encountering

All files? Only so often? Files > some particular size?
On a file that fails, might its permissions (or ownership) be such that that is what is causing you trouble?

Using a RAM disk?

Recycle bin full possibly? There is a limit you can set in the Windows control panel.
