This deals with your new system.
Install your bit version of WinRAR 5.01- English. ( If Windows 8 32 bit, 32bit version. If Windows 8 64bit 64 bit version of WinRAR)
WinRAR download and support: Download
Run WinRAR, navigate to the drive , select the folder you want to delete, Right click on it > delete ( Say OK and OK..... for any dialog box seeking your permission.)
Note 1: Make sure to delete only the unwanted folder.
Note 2: I believe that you adopted some wrong procedure ( prior to Slartybart's detailed exposition on Lucid Puppy usage) that must have created that folder.
Close WinRAR and double check you have all the necessary recovered files on your second run.
The deleted folder will be in the Recycle Bin. You have to empty the recycle bin for the disk space to be released.
Hope this works. ( Back to my self-imposed exile.)
