Me: "Delete this file."
Windows: "Someone is using it."
Me: "Who?"
Windows: "I can't say."
Me: "I checked using a utility. It says your file explorer is the one using it!"
Windows: "Well, I had to show a preview."
Me: "Why?"
Windows: "Because you selected the file to delete it!"

    This is why I turn off previews

    Until the next time I get pissed that I can't remember which PDF is which and turn them back on.

    @seraphimsystems ass2.pdf might be different to ass78.pdf but it also might be the same file saved once again at a later date. ass168.pdf seems to be flattened, but not optimized for the correct dpi, so let's re-save ass452-c.psd as ass452-c-optimized.pdf. shit. wrong psd.

    Don’t really use Windows anymore, but that used to piss me off! WHY CAN’T YOU JUST FREAKING DELETE IT! IDC IF A PROGRAM CRASHES YOU MOTHERFUCKER!

    In the same, on GNU/Linux: you want to delete that file? GET THE RPGS AND THE MINIGUNS! WE’RE GOING TO WAR

    Not to mention the hoary chestnut, "You need administrator privleges..." FUCK YOU! I *AM* the fucking administrator!

    It's like one of your kids telling you you need a hall pass to stay out past 2100...
