| | You'll need to provide administrator permission to delete this folder. I have tried everything to delete this folder. I was able to delete the file in the folder, but the folder itself won't delete. It won't delete in safe mode either. If I scan the folder or right click properties, it shows an object in the folder. If I check the "show hidden files" box, nothing is there. I can rename the folder, add to it, and move it, but I can't delete it. I have searched the internet for solutions and nothing works. |

| | It looks like a process is locking the folder preventing you from deleting it. Try the Unlocker 1.9.1 (a freeware program - google it) which will show you the process unlocking the folder and will also give you an option to kill that process. Then you can delete the folder. |
