Every once in a while I delete my temp files by going to run %temp%, and their are always files in there that will not delete. It says can not delete file access is denied. How do I get rid of these.

most likely they are still in use...try a restart then run the same commands , see if that helps at all

if that fails, goto your task manager, and exit out of explorer, and other programs such as browsers, and then try to delete the files via command line, if not and its really important to you, go into safe mode.

I once had a virus and all the above recommendation(albeit all good) failed. Hijack this removed it finally

search "can't delete file" on google. i've done that in the past and had success. also trying copying the file, pasting the file someplace else and then go delete the original file and the copied file in that ordered. that sometimes works for me.
