[Q] Cant delete sample music

I have a serious issue here, I cant delete the sample music.
I cant delete them from file explorer, in android and on a computer.
I cant transfer files to the music-folder.
What is this? I searched around, but there is no answers.
Anyone there that can help me?
Much appreciated.
Edit: rooted, did not help.
Do you have Root Explorer? I had a similar issue after downloading a program that had sample audio files, and I could not delete them even after uninstalling the program, but once I rooted, I was able to delete them using Root Explorer, but not with File Manager or ES Explorer.
Thanks, tried with Root Explorer. But it did not help.
This is just weird.

If you are on stock rom, do a factory reset:

Okay, I will try that.
Can I just reset it normally in the settings menu? Or do I have to do something special, since its rooted?

i use file explore apps like astro or root explorer, long press on said file, rename it just like you would on a computer. from a ".exe" to what ever the format is supposed to be. it works for me.

I searched on app store and found ese file explorer
Installed it and successfully run it
BUT the rename thing doesn't seems to work
I renamed a .exe file sample download.exe
A long hold press, then rename, the rename was good but
the file type is still a file not folder,
And I don't have any idea on how to change the file type
Does ese explorer app doesn't do the work?
Should I try your suggested app?
Or no Choice just to reset my phone?
Thanks for the quick reply
btw guys, i fixed my .exe problem, by doing a factory reset,
but for those guys who have the same problem and don;t want to do factory reset
replies and solutions for this problem is still welcome

Help needed, deleting a file not visible on the phone but knowing the path

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
