While we are at it - try this one - BUT ONLY ON A (HARD)DISK THAT YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT! (I WONT take any responsebility for any of you out there!) Make a directory, move down to it, make another directory and move down, ... C:\>mk 1 C:\>cd 1 C:\1>mk 2 C:\1>cd 2 C:\1\2>mk 3 ... Continue until MS-DOS tell you that your path is to long. Then try to delete you last created directory :-) If your MS-DOS has the same bug, then you will release that you can't remove it, because MS-DOS count! The path is one character to long (63 characters as far as I remeber) so it can't handle it!! I had to use PC-tools Prune-function to move part of the directory so MS-DOS would allow me to delete it!
