Can't delete a self-created folder on desktop

Take ownership of the folder, then delete it... Take Ownership Shortcut

As I said, I right click folder and Take Ownership (using the reg edit shortcut)....Access Denied.

OK...ALl in the same 30 minutes....

I created 2 folders on my desktop, one called The Faces, one called Rod Stewart.

I ripped some music to both, burned a CD from each, and then the fun started.

I right-clicked on The Faces folder, deleted. No prob.

I right-clicked on Rod Stewart folder and was told I don't have administrator rights to delete it.

I deleted all files in the folder, no prob.

I tried to delete now empty folder, no rights.

Ran elevated cmd prompt and typed:

rd /s /q "w:\user\desktop\rod stewart" and get access denied.

I right click folder and Take Ownership....Access Denied.

So I have an empty folder on desktop...

I even tried creating another folder on desktop called Junk, and tried dropping the Rod Stewart folder into it to then Delete Junk...I don't have admin rights to cut the empty Rod Stewart folder....

In Explorer when I navigate to the folder and try and click on it I get "it is not accessible", as in...it's NOT THERE.

thoughts?..PLEASE?!??!?!?!?

Thanks
Rod

Run a virus check on it just for chuckles.

Have you tried rebooting your PC and then deleting it?

Did you try restarting your computer?

Have rebooted 3 times since, and have run a virus scan. Nada...
