Using Filebox didn't work. Even setting it to root and enabling it to view hidden fils, I still can't find them in any of my folders.

I don't understand the last thing you suggested.

God, this is making me feel stupid

I have some photos on my phone memory and some on my memory card. I removed some from both locations via my laptop.

I don't know where these read-only files actually are, they don't show up in my documents, only when I click "photos" from the main menu and it is set to show all photos.

No I can't.

But I've solved it! I plugged my phone back into the laptop, went to the images folder, went to properties and unchecked the box that said "Attributes->Read-only"

Now they aren't there any more.


Thankyou for all your helpy, though, guys!

Edit: No. They're back again. Damnit.

The little ones that look like a broken thumbnail are the ones I'm trying to get rid of them. When I try to delete, it says "unable to delete", when I try to view details, it says "details not available" and when I try to view the images, it says "Image no longer available".
