Action Can't be Completed

Post by burgus »

I am changing folder names. I can change one or two but then I get this error message. "Action can't be completed because the folder or file in it is open in another program." But if I wait a few minutes, I can then change the name. But then I have to wait a few minutes to change the next one. If I walk away for 15 minutes or so. I can start the cycle over again.

Any ideas on what I have set wrong? I am the only one using the NAS.

Seems to only be folders?? I can change all the file names I want with out getting an error message.

Could it be the Thumbs.db file inside the folder doing this? If so is there a way to rid myself of all those files easily?

please post how you share your folders, if use SAMBA, post how you have configured.
