Kunal Hemrajani 1 Report post Posted January 13, 2007 ^^^if u hve written that RW then u cannot delete that file.. the only way is to erase the RW which will delete all the data in the cd.. Or if u hve formatted ur RW wid Nero's In cd.. then it wil behave as a floppy disk..dis means u can delete the folder lik u do in a floppy.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ashokjp 15 Report post Posted January 13, 2007 You can delete using NERO(if it is a rewritable, if it is not closed) But no use, even if u delete that space remain used until you format Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vishal Gupta 4 Report post Posted January 13, 2007 As ashok said, there will be no use of deleting the file/folder coz the space will not be free until u format the media And if u want to delete a file/folder just bcoz u don't want to show it on the media, then create another file/folder with the same name and then drag-n-drop it at the same location of existing file/folder in CD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anujit 0 Report post Posted January 15, 2007 yeah but those files/folders might still be accessible through a program like nero etc... so its not very secure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
