Messy S.D. Card

Can someone tell me why I still have apps on my S.D. card that I deleted via HBC? And why can't I delete them? How can I get rid of them?

You can't delete apps using the HBC. Why don't you delete them from your computer?

No you don't get it. I deleted some apps that i downloaded off my HBC startup page, but they still show up on my S.D. card and my computer won't let me delete them off my S.D. card.

Actually you can.

Some apps use files on the root of the SD card. Although I haven't tested it myself, I doubt that the Homebrew Channel deletes anything other than the application's folder from the apps folder on the SD card.

Really? Honestly I haven't used the Homebrew Channel in months..

Anyways, make sure your SD card is not "locked"; there is a little switch on the SD that makes it so you cant write to (or remove stuff from) your SD card.

EDIT: Ah, so you can delete from the HBC.. nevermind

For deleting files Windows doesn't want you to, try Unlocker : [ccollomb.free.fr] - I find it works really well for me.
