Windows 7 - Windows 7 won't let me delete a folder?

| | Windows 7 won't let me delete a folder? For some reason, Windows 7 won't let me delete my Windows Media Player folder. Each time I try to delete the folder, a message comes up that says "You need permission to perform this action from [insert my user name for my Sony Vaio] to make changes to this folder. When i click "try again" it still pops up. It doesn't ask for a password or anything. I went under properties and hit the security and clicked edit to change the permissions. I then un-clicked all the rights i had before under my user name, which deleted the user name from the security window. That still didn't work. What am I doing wrong? I took ownership of the file before I intended on deleting it, and I think that is what has caused all these problems. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME! |
