Some other app is blocking your files

How do I figure out who is blocking it ?

Check the file system permissions first and check that it’s set to Everyone. If that doesn’t work then it’s being locked, try Google to find an app which helps identify processes which are locking files (usually antivirus, scanners or sometimes library monitoring apps like Plex etc)

Do you think deleting MCEBuddy and reinstalling it would help ?
I looked for system permissions nothing has changed

One thing else when I moved the WMV files to a different hard drive than tried to drag and drop the video it shows the plus sign when dragging it but thats it.

Well un-installing to a earlier version didn’t help went back to 2.5.5
Changing Hard drives didn’t help the last resort is reload the P.C. with Windows 7 any other suggestions ?
