Files on my sandisk have been corrupted, so I tried to run the sansa connect recovery tool. This is what happened:
===== Begin execution =====

What's happening here? I don't suppose rockbox has some sort of formatter for it's supported players? Directories can no longer be removed, I get a message similar to this.

---------------------------
Error Deleting File or Folder
---------------------------
Cannot remove folder 01: The directory is not empty.

---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
I can go into the affected folder(s) and remove the files manually, but the list gets re populated as soon as I leave and/or hit the refresh key, which latter action I took upon a hunch. In other words, the files undelete themselves. They're 0 bytes in size and can't be removed. I suspect that recent errors in my computer's file system are contributing to this, but knowing the cause is not helping to necessarily find the solution. Any ideas?
