My friend has a problem with his computer where he cant delete anything
not just like where its a Spyware program that wont let you delete itslef, you make a Star.bmp in paint, you cant delete it.
the error it gives is
Error Deleting File or Folder
(X) Cannot delete the *whatever*: Data error, (cylic redundancy check).

thank you but all spoke of prgrams to delete stuff as opposed to finding waht the porblem is caused by and how to fix it
must be some sort of virus that did something
oh but you can still remove programs, at least with add/remove programs

Windows Defender
