Copy all your files except for the annoying file to another location like your 
hard drive in a special folder. Find your pen drive whatever way you do it but 
do not open the pen drive but instead press your applications keyboard key or 
shift+f10. Choose format. Make sure you are formatting the pen drive and not 
another hard drive. read your screen carfully. It is simple to do. Follow the 
prompts.

  Subject: pen drive question


  hello friends, firstly, i'm not sure if this is the correct list on which to 
  ask this question, if not my apologies to the moderator,  and secondly, i 
  have tried unsuccessfully to solve the problem myself, i have a pen drive, 
  on which there is one file i can't delete, in fact it's not actually a file, 
  it's just one character, the "at"  sign, it must have been part of some 
  document  i had on the pen drive at some time, it's been there for ages, and 
  i want to delete it, but every time i try i get a message saying "can't 
  delete this file cannot find the source disk" i want to delete it but can't, 
  any suggestions, god bless, travel safely, joe bollard, the republic of 
  ireland.
