    a lot of code went by using the /s switch and i noticed after each line it kept saying Access is Denied.

    any ideas?

    ok, the directory you wish to delete has a properties box, can you screen shot the "security" /edit tab for me. I need to see the "edit" portion b/c we need to see if they're "greyed" out. If you can't edit the securities, the permissions are being inherited from a parent directory.


    We can remove that inheritance but we need to see where it's coming from first.

    Solved


    You have a WIM mounted with DISM.
    At an administrative command line type the following:

    dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:%temp%\rt_mount /discard


    You are GOOD!
