Delete Error!!!

hi first of all i would like to say i am not a no0B and i which you could help me. Yesterday i downloaded luaPlayer to my psp but i diddent have any good lua games or apps so i deleted it from the psp but then when i plugged in my psp to the pc and went to psp/games there were a new folder called _DEL_00000000000022370350 i recon that is a folder that was created because of deleting error and now i cant delete that folder.. :mad:

The folder size says it is 500Mb but its more like 320 kb because my psp says it still has 800 Mb free space and i have a 1 GB memory stick

ANY ONE KNOW HOW TO DELETE THIS MAP ???:mad:

where is it on ur psp cuz i know when i have a folder i can't delete i rename it and put it in my GAME folder, then go to ur XMB and go to GAMES then u should have a corrupted icon hit triangle and then go to delete

ive tried that but it just says delete failed

I've come across this and it's very irritating...

Try deleting it through your PC via USB but first go to the folder's properties and make it non-readable and non-hidden...You should be able to delete it.

If that doesn't work, try deleting it through the PSP's XMB or through any homebrew application organizer you might have...

If all that fails, I'm sorry but it looks like you're gonna have to back up your entire Memory stick to your PC desktop and have the PSP reformat it...works every time.

Thanks Alot you made my day Sirius....:)

yeh thats the other pain in my @$$ way lol, thats what u have to do if it won't let u delete it from ur psp, then it takes forever to put everything back on but whatever works, right? :D

Format your memory stick on the PSP :D

HEY! WAIT JUST A SEC! DON'T FORGET TO BACK UP YO SHIZ TO THE PC DESKTOP FIRST!! I DON'T WANNA BE THE ONE TELLING YOU "I TOLD YOU SO" LATER...lol Just kidding I'm sure you'll be just fine.

yeap ive already started its reformating ;( :D

Thanks once again!!!!

Done 950 MB FREE SPACE WOOOOW YEAAHAA ;D

Glad to hear it's working for ya...Now I have PSPenvy...aw crap!

i know this may be a nooby question but how come when you format a 1gb ms it says its got 950mb space and not 50? is it because of the hiiden files on the ms?

That has somthing to do with the operating system files or somthing, when i got my 2G stick it was only1856 or somthing, btw either way its a p*** off.

format the memory stick as fat32 not fat16, read/write times will increase and files will take up less space
