Delete It ReviewRobust but not effective on some fles - Version: 2.1, 1/25/2007 04:39PM PST

DeleteIt Seems more robust than the several others I've tried with my current problem; 'ForceEmptyTrash' 'iempty', 'ForceDelete', etc. but none have been able to trash some sticky items in my trashcan. These are items that can't even be moved out of the trash and whose permissions appear to be in order.

When selecting these files using 'DeleteIt', the error given is 'file cannot be accessed NilObjectException Forward'.

If you're curious the problem folders are labeled:
123
Firefox
itunes Library Manager f

I had a "Previous system folder" and isolated OS "root" items in my Thrash which refused to be deleted for a couple of days...whichever method I tried. "Delete it" made it but their warning to be careful in deleting stuff is somewhat scary...Recommended, but Handle with care!

it says, but the interface is cumbersome (no apparent way to delete multiple files at once, as a result having to reenter admin password many times). The "this could cause SERIOUS damage" warning alert is a little scary, too. I was just cleaning stuff off my desktop.

would write a hack which would RESTORE the original behavior of locked files. In other words being able to move or rename them.
