I have noticed some temporary files (some really big - 1.65M) with names like "MsgQueueData..." created in the Windows directory under "My Device". I cannot delete these files as it says there is a share violation and these files are chewing up my available space. I tried restarting my pocket PC and yet I cannot delete them. Can someone please help
i havent heard about anybody being able to delete them
i asumed that they were pages files for different services
like phone and sms and...

Hey,
I haven't proven this yet but I think I've got a method for securely deleting files on any OS. The reason people need to do "secure delete" rather than simply deleting files is because this only removes the directory to those files, a fact that can be exploited by anyone motivated to see whatever file it is you're trying to trash, Complex programs that can be used do some sort of shuffling to accomplish a more secure delete. This is all necessary until the space is used up again, at which point it can't be storing both the old and the new file.
All you gotta do is:
take any group of files,
copy and paste them repeatedly
keep filling in the free space until there's none
delete copies
jobs done
I'd love to know if and why this isn't true, it does seem too simple. Anyone know how to extract deleted files (to test it)?
I installed Easy Unrar, Unzip & Zip from Goolge play to unzip a zip folder on my phone. It didn't work at all, besides, it created a folder (with strange character name) which can not be deleted. It's 0 byte, can be opened but is empty. Can not create anything inside. I tried deleting with Astro file manager, nothing happened, the folder still there. I tried deleting from my PC, it said the 'Cannot delete the folder. Storage is protected. Remove the write-protection and try again'. The strange folder is on my internal memory. I don't have a memory card installed. Please help.
I can delete any other things on my phone. The file name of the zip I tried to unzip is not English, which I suspect might be the problem?

ive encountered this too. can someone help us or did you already fix this? I think it has a chinese character like.apk but when you open. it opens as if it was a folder. but you cannot delete, rename, move or copy. even through desktop operations failed. and also its shows the date accessed in a year 1970. i tried to edit my date settings hoping that I might delete it but this note 2 has a minimum of year 2000. help thanks
Try to install clean master and open it. Press junk file and standard. Allow it to scan. It shld have a residual folders place. Just scan it with standard and advanced. See if it is still thr. Btw. U can unzip zip files with File Expert.

Suddenly all my pictures and videos disappeared.All Viber, Whats app, Screenshots, camera, downloaded - everything... Only new ones I take are showing. The files are missing in the folders too. I have two DCIM folders - one on internal and another on external drive but they are empty now. I tried File Explorer, ES File Explorer with "show hidden files", and I've checked all of the device folders, but I can not find any of my pictures or videos. I tryed with QuickPic - same sh**... If i connect my device to my PC the result is the same. The PC recovery soft which I test, found about 3000 files, and with all emoticons and trash there were my pictures but in very low res. So I tried Hexamob Recovery Pro (from the Play store), but the result was the same - about 12 000 junk files and some of mine in low res... The method with deleting all .nomedia files doesn't work. Than I've installed Undelete - This app found about 300 files, and these were all of the missing files, but when I tried to restore them, It asked for a license key... The free version could restore only pics...one by one... You can't select all!!!
So how to restore all my stuff without stupid apps!?
*my camera freezes often. "Could not connect the camera" appeares, and I need to reboot to solve this prob
Samsung GT-I9300
Android Version 4.1.2
Baseband I9300UELK1
Kernel 3.0.31 -Siyah-1.8.6+
AOKP Milestone -1 Jelly Bean
Omega v4.2
Where are these files stored (hidden), what is there extension? And why only Undelete can find the proper files with their full resolution!?
So, I found that Undelete detects files at DCIM\DCIM\Camera, but even with "show hidden " explorers does not see the second DCIM folder... Any suggestions !?
You can try

Or buy the Undelete licence .
Or read the multiple identical lost photos / files posts .

Thanks!
But I already checked similar posts, and stil can't find solution .. The soft that you recommended, resulting small images too.. The idea is not only to recover, but to prevent future problems of this kind.. I want to understand what causes that
How to stop the automatic creation of ".nomedia" file in a specific folder ?
Can you please let me know the steps to stop the creation of ".nomedia "file in a specific folder( Ex : Abcd album) so that i am able to the pictures of it in the gallery.Every now and then it gets created and i had to delete it manually. I am using Whatsremoved App which stores the deleted files and statuses from WhatsApp in a folder but in the folder .nomedia files gets created, thus that folder did not come in the gallery and gets hidden, no matter how many times i delete that file it keeps coming.
Also, i had used this same app on my old Moto G4 Plus and i did not face the same issue on that phone.
Please suggest a solution
Hi Guys
First of all excuse me for posting here as I am far from a developer but you are the only ones who can help me with this.
Yesterday I was trying to download a file from Facebook, and it would download but then i could not find it anywhere, even plugged my phone to the computer and did a search and nothing. So I kept trying to download it.
Thing is today I used this password storing app and went to open my file where i have stored all my passwords (nothing to do with what happened yesterday).
And in most recent downloads i saw the 10 duplicates of the files i had downloaded yesterday, and this app gives me the path for example
content://com.android.providers.downloads.documents/document/5412
how can i delete them having the path for each one?
thank you so much
Moved from development
