Q: Why can't I delete or copy a file from the CE file system?
There are a couple of reasons this can happen:
You can't delete system files.
You can't delete read-only files.
Note that you should be careful when copying files to your CE device. If the read-only attribute is set, you will not be able to delete the file with the tools provided in the Bsquare desktop. If you have a Windows CE Services connection between your device and a PC, you can use the remote tools to change file attributes and to delete files.
Hint: Even though you might get an "Access is denied" message when you try to copy a file to the Windows folder, you may be able to do it over ActiveSync.
