Can't Delete Save (USA memory card)

[Lunette]

Hey all I'm new here. Always have a question, so thought I'd join up.


I am playing Metroid Prime 2 Echoes and I'm trying to kill my save and upload gamefaqs one...however, it wont let me delete it. I clicked and then clicked 'delete' but it's still there.

It works for Euro card, for some reason, but not USA. I'm confused.

Because it´s Read-Only file... (?)

How can i fix this? Sorry if I'm being vague, just a bit confused here.

check the file properties in windows to see if the read only box is checked.

is there a check in the read only box?

How did you get that window? I'm on a mac...and I can't find it.

my bad, I should've checked your profile

either right click or command click on the memory card file, and look at the properties,
the windows is different on mac, but it should list whether or not you have write permission for that file

I'm sorry for the late reply, just checked this again because I'm just now fooling around with the game saves again.

Can't Find it.... even searched with mac's finder. I opened folder contents, and it won't show me nothing, it says there's nothing there. If it helps, the save is weird looking. Says 3 blocks saved 5 and below is a white space that says -1....

Please help me.. This is so darn annoying.

BUMP! If anyone can help, I'd appreciate their time greatly.

quickest thought that I have is to export all of the other saves, and try to import them to a brand new memory card,
I would keep a backup of the original
I will need more time and/or an upload of the memory card in question to further diagnose the issue

Me again. I think it might be an error with me using save states and using the memory card or leaping off the save state and saving states within it or something...Dunno.

Here is a picture of what it looks like. Nothing is clickable..cant click delete. Huge pain. :/
