| | Hello TRinAZ, If it's still there after restarting the computer or refreshing (F5) the window, then you might see if using the free program Unlocker on the folder may be able to allow you to delete it afterwards. Hope this helps, Shawn |

| | Does the folder also show up in your actual Documents folder? I notice that you're using the Libraries view and I'm just curious if going directly to your Documents folder would show the same thing. Maybe the library is somehow out-of-date? But try Brink's advice first and see what happens. |
