Hellow!!
I’m newbie here and my English is not very good, but here it goes.
About this issue, and after a long research, I have done this bat file that i named “NProtect Forced Cleanup.bat” to clean all the undeletable files, in all drives “NPROTECT” directory:
DEL \\?\C:\RECYCLER\NPROTECT\*.* /Q
DEL \\?\D:\RECYCLER\NPROTECT\*.* /Q
DEL \\?\E:\RECYCLER\NPROTECT\*.* /Q
I run this bat file every time after an “Empty Norton Protected Files”. It works fine, but what I really want, is the solution to those annoying 8 digit doted and with no extension files that, all the time, keeps appearing in the “NPROTECT” directories. Every single day those files are created in large number (100 to 500) and amounts, sometimes, to 2Gb. It were really cool that those files were not created, or at least, that were simple cleaned with the “Empty Norton Protected Files” application.
ANYONE KNOWS THE SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM!!
As far as I know, this problem has more than 4 or 5 years old.
Regards.
