Can't delete file (x64)

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

Can't delete file (x64)

Post by *elpin »

I just installed a Vista x64 system and encountered a bug I didn't have on Vista x32.
The thing is when I listen to a music file and then after I stop listening to it I decide to delete the MP3 file I was listening, I can't! TC just tells me that the file can't be deleted and is protected for writing (which it isn't of course). It doesn't help to quit the MP3 Player, it doesn't help to restart TC and it doesn't even help to restart the computer. The file just stay locked for TC forever.
When I try to delete it in explorer or command line, it works without a problem.
I tried to see how much serious the problem is and just for a test copied a file from location A to location B and when I try to delete the file from location B again, it doesn't work in TC. Again the "write protection" problem. And again in explorer it works.

Could somebody please confirm this?

Thank you.

PS: I'm not using any plugins. Just the newest 7.02a version straight out of the box.

Ooops, just when I posted the problem, I thought about giving a try to remove the "x64DisableRedirection=1" command in wincmd.ini and now it works! I can delete the files without a problem...

So the big bug is: I can't delete files in a manner that I described above, but only when System32 folder redirection for 64 bit systems is used.

Again, could somebody please confirm this?

Thanks!

Cannot confirm. On my virtual machine with Vista x64 TC 7.02a correctly removes files both with x64DisableRedirection=1 and 0.
