Hello, All! To summarize:
* I couldn't see the permissions of the file. * ls |od suggests that there were no hidden chars. * Wildcards/tab find the file, but deleting fails with ENOENT. * The file has not been opened, and the problem persisted after reboot. * Scandisk didn't complain about a bad file name. * I couldn't move the upper directory (don't remember the error message any more). I was able to delete the file using its 8.3 name, mentioned in another thread. Thanks much for your help!
