The file is a PDF on my desktop, and now I've opened with "Open All Files". but after that I wanted to do it again but nothing happens. When I put the mouse-pointer over the file there are 2 arrows on the file (one pointing left and the second pointing right and and on the right one there is a small wheel that keeps turning.
Sometimes I still can open it with "Open all files" but I cannot get it into the trash.
Try it in Safe Mode...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode?
What File? I believe that Error -43 has something to do with "file not found"
control (right) click on the file and select Get Info, then post a screen shot of the info window.
Is Macintosh HD>Users>French Jordens>Desktop your user's folder?
Try re-naming it something besides ? and then see if you can move it to the Trash.
Any luck yet?
