How to Delete This is no longer located in Directory Files in Windows Website - A time ago I'm just producing my videos with Cam. Trying to Remove a File on my Desktop - 'Item not Found' I have had this problem for nearly a year now. I currently have about five files on my desktop that when ever I try to remove I receive the error; - Item Not Found Could not find this item This is no longer located in C: Users Desktop. Verify the items location then try again.
If you have an impossible to delete 0 byte file with the error message:
Could not find this item. This is no longer located in…
Open your command prompt. Type dir /xto get the 8.3 name of the directory folder.
If, for example, your problem file is in your Download folder, the 8.3 name is DOWNLO~1.
You’ll be prompted to type Y (yes) or N (no) to delete the file. Be advised that all files in that folder will be deleted so keep a backup or move files you do not wish to delete elsewhere.

Also, for impossible to delete folders/files on flash drives, you can right click your removable drive and go to Format. Formatting your drive will wipe all your files. Again, keep a backup of whatever you want to keep on a different flash drive/memory card.
