Unremoveable track on MD

Hi- I'm a first time user here. I do MD repairs for a hobby and was testing an MZ-N510 by loading 50 tracks of text files to see how fast it would go with SS 3.1 under WinXP Pro SP2. Everything worked perfectly, so I returned all the files to the Library to erase the disk, only to find 1 track could not be returned.

The diagnostic was that it was made on a different computer than that which was being used to return the track. Of course that wasn't true, as the whole upload was done as a batch.

OK, are you ready? How the dickens do I get rid of this renegade track? The copy protection won't let me do anything with it. And I can't find anything so far in this forum that addresses this problem.

Thanks for any help. I am good at repairing these neat little rigs, so if you have any questions or need repairs, post em.

You can presumably format the disc if there is nothing of value left there.
