That usually means the file is in use. Go to Start>Run and type in msconfig. Under the Startup tab look for the camera program and uncheck it.

What is your Operating System?

try this, start in safe mode and then once in windows delete files :tazz:

*note*
make sure that what you're deleting is not going to mess your system up

also after sucessful delete, reboot windows and run a scan of the regedit so that it can be cleaned up
