I use the Delete File command to clear out my browser cache using the format 'Delete Files - C:\Path\Cache\*.*' This has worked perfectly under Windows ME and XP but following a recent upgrade to Macro Express 3.5e I keep getting 2 Error messages saying, 'Cannot Delete.: It is being used by another person or program. Close any program that may be using the file and try again.' and 'Cannot Delete..: Access Denied. Make sure the disk is not full or write protected and that the file is not currently in use.' The files are, nevertheless, deleted. Any idea what's going on?

Just after my last post I upgraded to version 3.5e. My macro now works perfectly.

I've written a macro to swap the wallpaper. It works OK as long as I use a bitmap for the wallpaper. If I activate the Active Desktop and try to use a jpg then the picture doesn't appear. If I open the Desktop Display properties box, however, it shows that the relevant jpg has been selected but I have to deselect it, reselect it and press OK to make it appear on the desktop. I've modified my macro to do this but it seems a bit of a long winded process. Is there an easier way to do this. I've found a couple of registry keys which may be relevant. One shows "Desktop Wallpaper" and is quite readily altered by my original macro. The other shows "Converted Wallpaper" but isn't changed by the original macro, only by the one which replicates a manual wallpaper change.
