 Hi, There are seven files that I've downloaded (videos) that will not play,
so I want to delete them. When I right click on these specific files, delete
is not in the list of options as it always is. So I highlight the file and go
to file>delete just to get an ERROR message stating, "The following files
could not be deleted. They may be in use by another application or are
currently being downloaded to" Though I know for certain that the files are
neither in use nor being downloaded! Any suggestions would be greatly
appreciated as it's driving me nuts! Thanks.

 Uninstall your torrent program and stop sharing these files.
