    Delete, rename, or move folder issues


    I had an old folder in my older computer's drive I hadn't used for a long time. When I tried to move the file inside the folder to my computer's drive, it said"Items Not FoundCould not find this itemThis is no longer located in the file's directory. Verify the item's location and try again."And when I tried to delete both the file and the folder, it said the same thing.I also tried to rename the file, and what made it weirder was that the file name actually ended with a space and I can't rename it at all. Plus, all files inside it seems fine and not corrupted at all. What should I do to be a

    Errors on creating, renaming, deleting folders in explorer

    Thanks for that will get on it. In meantime, the folder name, rename, delete issues and related error messages in part is just because windows explorer has suddenly started requiring a refresh for each step to show the new folder for renaming, then again after it has been renamed etc. So I have to keep hitting F5 for every step in the process including the moving of files from one folder to another. Is there a solution to that? That would be part of the probelm solved and I can then see if there are any remaining problems. Thanks - - - Updated - - -
    Tha bit has been solved by a restart of explorer. I will watch for any remaining issues and folow dalchina's advice should they still be present.
