I am having difficulty when erasing selected files. I get an error message:

“Failed to clean directory entries from drive C:\ there was something not quite right with the file system. You may want to run ScanDisk”

I am using Windows 98. I have tried running scan disk yet I find after having done this that I still get the same error message.

Might anyone have any ideas on this.

Many thanks.

So no need to reply for the moment.
 
Yes defragmenting the drive did the trick, so no more problem.
