force delete a file that doesn't exist
Asked by
mr.peeters
i have a .doc file on my hard drive, downloaded from an email.
however i can't open this file anymore, and if i delete it i get an error message saying the file does not exist.
but it keeps on showing up on my hard drive every time i restart.
also when i try 'rm path_of_file' in terminal i get the same error: no such file exists.
how can i get rid of this annoying unexisting file?
thanks for helping!
