• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Cannot delete read_dem.exe

Hey all,
A while ago i downloaded a tool called read_dem.exe but later found out i didnt need it. I tried to delete it and it wont allow me. Moving isnt allowed either. I get the error message: "read_dem.exe cannot be deleted/moved because it is being used by another program/user. Close all programs which might be using it and try again." (something like that). Its really irritation as i now have two copies of it on my desktop and they wont delete :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: ! Help is much appreciated!

ciao!
 
Have you tried deleting it after a reboot? I have seen it before with some empty folders. After a reboot of the system I could remove them. I think some process was still scanning them or so.
