I didn't really have a clue which forum to post this in - so feel free to move it if necessary!
Win7 Home Premium
Folder "D:\new vms"
has a number of subfolders - one of which is "Win 8", which is apparently empty.
Somehow I have managed to lose control of that subfolder - and can do absolutely nothing with it any more. All other subfolders are 'normal'
I've tried
Windows explorer - cannot rename or delete. Properties cannot display security data
Admin CMD - cannot rename, delete, RD, ICACLS, TAKEOWN or anything else - says 'file not found'
Repair Env CMD - as for Windows CMD
(forgot to add)
CHKDSK /r and CHKDSK /F scans show no problems
Anyone have any idea how to get rid of it? It seems to be blocking backups!
