Hi Sergey. WSH finds the folder and tells me that it is named 2 spaces and its sub-folder is named with 1 space. However, it will not delete either one nor allow them to be renamed.

>>On a W2K Server/SP4 server I have some how managed to create a folder with no name. It in turns contains a folder with no name. They are not named with spaces. They have no name at all. Niether of these folders can be renamed or deleted. When you try to rename them the little edit box contains nothing.

>>When I try to delete/rename the folder the error message is "Cannot rename file: Cannot read from the source file or disk".

>>When you stop laughing you can let me know if you have any suggestions on how to get rid of them :)
