Fuze fails to delete old recordings: Any new solutions?

Tape

When I switch to MTP mode, and connect to the PC via windows, I get a dialog box that offers two options:

1.  Sync

2.  Take no action

I don’t want to get involved with Sync to WMP, etc, so I choose Take No Action

And then I don’t get access to the Fuze via windows.  No drive letter shows up.

So apparently I cannot switch to MTP mode and then delete files via Windows Explorer.
