    Search Program Recommendations ? And Getting System Permission To Del


    Hello,

    a. Might anyone suggest a free "good" SEARCH program similar to Agent Ransack ?
    The W7 one is quite poor, IMHO.

    Agent Ransack is good, very good, but it will not allow me to Delete a zillion old files that it found and that I would like to purge.

    b. Also, some of them, when I do try to Delete them, says SYSTEM permission Required.
    They are in the System Folder, but I definitely know that they can be purged safely.
    How do I get System Permission to do so ?

    Thanks,
    Bob

    Have you tried running Agent Ransack as admin?
    Right click -> run as admin?
