Hey,

I'm trying to erase files off of my 2GB Kingston Data Traveler flash drive that I use with my Macbook Pro (2007 or 2008 model, not sure which) and I get the message:

"The operation can’t be completed because one or more required items can’t be found.
(Error code -35)"

The files have strange names and I haven't seen them on my flash drive before. I suspect their files that have been corrupted, but I can figure out what they may have been. The file names that I wish to delete are:

0Â
10.ÂÁ (this and the one above are one file, apparently the name somehow has a return carriage in it)

0Â?18.0‚

10Â?1.80

FFFF??.0‚

If I had to guess at what they were, they should either be Eclipse projects I needed for my Computer Vision class, or they would be the OpenCV Library and some affiliated files, which I also needed for that class. I deleted these files off of my Macbook and forgot to do so with the Kingston, could this be the cause? I just want these files off of my flash drive. What does these error mean and how do I delete these files?

Would formatting the drive be OK? (Means everything will be wiped)

Go to applications and find something like disk utility and you can format the drive from there.

I would greatly prefer not to, and I also didn't know you could format flash drives. Would doing so make it only compatible with Macs? If so then I definitely don't want to do that.

Just a bit more info, when I I try to delete the files using a Windows Computer I get this error Message:
"Cannot delte file: cannot read from the source file or disk."

Also, on the windows machine there are only two files and the names are different:
0?
10.?? (once again, this and the above are one file with a return carriage in the name)

and

0?ü18.0é

Anybody have any idea what's going on or how to fix it?

Edit: the file names didn't come out correctly, there are a bunch of boxes instead of '?'

Depends on what filesystem you format is as. Fat32 is compatible with both Windows and Mac.

+1 to format, get everything you want off of it, then format it - it won't be mac-only if you choose fat 32

    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats

  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
