how can you delete a file off a cd if it is a read only file?

[jennuv]

I made a mistake and wrote a file onto a cd that I shouldn't have written to. When I try to delete the file from the cd it says access denied b/c it's a read only file. Is there any way I can remove this file from the cd?

Very new to this...

Thanks!

You can, but it involves some pretty heavy burn tactics.

Best solution is to destroy the cd in question, that will fix it.
Scissors work quite well.

Ha, that is the funniest question I've seen in a long time!

CD-R discs are read-only by nature. But if your disk is a CD-RW, that's another story.

(most burning apps come with a cd eraser)

Hi
If the disk is a cdr and not a cdrw disk, you will have to destroy the disk.
