"Cannot Read From The Source File or Disk."
I get this error when I try to move, remove or copy file.
They are MAC files.
How do I get rid of these files?
Not all files just some.
Sincerely,
Lisa Marie

I am not sure if the following will help but you could try the following:

Try this open a command window and do this

Open a CMD.EXE window.
CD to the top of the mess.
Use: DIR /X /A   to see the SHORT FILE NAMES of the files and directories
there.
Use a combination of CD, RD, and DEL and the SHORT FILES names reported with
DIR /X to delete

your way to the bottom and then back up the tree removing the files on the
way down and the directories on the way up.

RMDIR [/S] [/Q] [drive:]path
RD [/S] [/Q] [drive:]path

/S      Removes all directories and files in the specified directory
in addition to the directory itself.  Used to remove a directory
tree.

/Q      Quiet mode, do not ask if ok to remove a directory tree with /S
