Thread: Cannot delete file with corrupted file name

hello,

have file cannot delete. name of file supposed baldo_2006-07-01.gif appears, command ls, baldo_2006-07-01?gif. if run command rm *, following message:

code:

rm: cannot remove `baldo_2006-07-01\016gif': no such file or directory

i have try many other commands, sudo rm *, sudo rm -r *, sudo shred * , error message. think file name corrupted during copy process.

idea of command use rid of it?

look closeley command, typed file name wrong

cannot remove `baldo_2006-07-01\016gif

instead of backslash "\" need " - " , no 16 @ end.

correct command should

code:

rm baldo_2006-07-01.gif

not delete it. must point command in directory file (is on desktop?) if on desktop type

code:

rm /home/user_name/desktop/baldo_2006-07-01.gif

write instead ot user_name actual username.
