In my trash, I have an incomplete (not fully downloaded) ISO file and an unknown file that originated in Windows 7, using BootCamp. The trash can be emptied, but these two files never disappear. Also, when I try dragging them to another location (like my desktop), I get an error saying: "The operation can’t be completed because it isn’t supported".
I have tried the "sudo rm -rf" command in Terminal, repairing my permissions in Disk Utility, Force Empty Trash, and 3rd-party utilities like Trash X (link: http://www.northernsoftworks.com/trashx.html), Trash It! (link: http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/8214/trash-it!/) and Cocktail (link: http://www.maintain.se/cocktail/). None of it has worked.
Also, when I tried to empty my trash using the Secure Empty Trash option, it gave my this error for both files: "The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “<filename>” can’t be read or written. (Error code -36)"
Could somebody please help me?
