Question

Hey everyone, I need a little help.
I saved a picture of me desktop, and put it in my "My Pictures" folder. Well, now, whenever I try to open my "My Pictures" folder, the window freezes, and windows explorer restarts. I don't know how to open "my pictures" and delete the picture without deleting the entire folder. Any ideas? thx

You can try deleting the picture by going into safe mode on your computer or using dos.

By "Explorer" I assume you mean "XP" which is "Xploder".

I believe you can delete stuff in DOS. I forgot the code though.

Two more ways could be if you know the directory (Usually C:\Documents and Settings\[user here]\My Documents\My Pictures\[picture.extension here]) you could view it and then delete it through the picture viewer. Or... I forgot it. I'll get back to ya.

Really stupid way to do it that doesnt any work....

Open a file requester box and delete it from there :D

(Chose the menu "File" and select "Open" on just about any program)

If you need to do it from DOS or Safe Mode and dont know how, let me know
