http://LongPathTool.com - Path Too Long file copier/deleter

Windows tool to copy and delete files and folders with long paths.
Just browse to the file and press a button to delete it, that’s it!

The application solves the problem with inability to copy and delete
files and folders with long paths or locked by some application. They
could be created by virus/adware/different OS/other software. Normally
one can't access such files under Windows and therefore can't delete
them either.

Long Path Tool uses a variety of methods to delete the persistent or
locked files, including attempting to close the handle, killing the
process holding the file open, unloading the DLL that may have open
the file handle, scheduling the file to be deleted on the next reboot,
etc.
The program works under Windows 2000, XP, 2003 and Vista.

* Have you have ever get a message from Windows like: Cannot delete
file: Access is denied
* There has been a sharing violation.
* The source or destination file may be in use.
* The file is in use by another program or user.
* Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file
is not currently in use.
* Error Deleting File or Folder
* Cannot delete file or folder The file name you specified is not
valid or too long. Specify a different file name.

when you tried to delete, MOVE or rename a file? Then this program
will be helpful.
Long Path Tool identifies the processes (running programs) that have
locked that file, preventing it from being deleted, moved or renamed.
