Take the 2-minute tour ×  I've got a 0 byte, errorous pdf file,
which I can't delete. Neither in normal nor in safe mode.  I
can't run format on the partition where the pdf file is because

I'm using Win7. Any ideas? Suggestions?  share|improve this

say? Does the filename contain special characters? –  Bobby Sep

File Assassin supports up to Vista. I've tried it on my Windows
7 box and it works fine.  share|improve this answer Unlocker
