Files Impossible to Delete

[Whistler81]

Guys, help me out here. There are three files in my c drive namely
1.AcroIEHelper.dll
2.AcroPDF.dll
3.pdfshell.dll
that refuse to go. When i try to delete I get an error message
"Acess is denied. Make sure the disk is mot full or right protected."
when i format the partition the files remain intact. i have tried file shredders but they fail to delete the files.
they exist in this location and even in the partition where i have windows installed
C and D:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX
if you know a way i can delete these files please let me know.
I currently have windows in the d drive.

After Uninstalltion of certain softwares some DLL files are left behind so that OS/other SOftwares can make use of them.

These DLL files are left behind after you uninstalled some Adobe Product, let them be there as OS or some other software may be using them and moreover such files just takes KB of space so why bother

Hello,
Some .dll files do not get deleted when you uninstall the software using Windows Uninstaller. So, use revo uninstaller. IF this even doesn,t work then use any unlocker software and use it to delete those files.

Uninstall Adobe Reader and try deleting these files after that.
