[HELP]Cannot delete PS3 games on internal HDD

Post by nyak00 » Mon Jan 05, 2015 5:10 pm

Hello there, so I finally bought an external HDD and decided to move some of my games there using Multiman, but to my surprise some of my games cannot be deleted, Remember Me(BLUS31012) with of few KBs of size and Yakuza 3(BLUS30494) has 18++ GBs of size..


I am currently on 4.55 Rogero and using Multiman on a PS3 slim.. I try to move the said games to other folder, rename them and then ultimately delete but to no avail. They can be scanned for size and show their said sizes but if I delete them, Multiman will perform it's scan immediately but the games would be still there.


Can anyone help me with this? BTW I'm on stock internal HDD as of now.. Will upgrade to a 1tb WD scorpio blue if I solve my problems..


Thanks so much!!!

sometimes directories and data on hdd is somewhat locked ...

try this:

boot in recovery mode,
select to repair file system,
once booted back into xmb, try to delete it again.

Thanks!! This won't wipe the HDD or change anything right?

It worked, have deleted games on my internal HDD.. I was expecting to delete like 20gb of files but it cleared 70gb of space..


Thanks so much!!
