in reply to Deleting Files on NT

Could you please show us your code?

It would then be much easier to solve your problem, as apparently you have access to the files.

It is also possible that you would only have a "Read-Only" access, so check it by doing this:

Win32::File::GetAttributes($file, $attrib);

    Do you really need a module for that? I've always used:
    -w # file is writable
-r # file is readable
-e # file exists

    Just those three usually cut it when I'm trying to do stuff on the filesystem. If anything more complex than just that is required, I go to stat().
