Topic: damn folder won't delete

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Has this happened to you?

No matter what I do, I cannot delete his music folder.

Even tried out the command line

del /f *

but it didn't work.

any help is appreciated.

and yes, this is a sub directory of my music folder on my dedicated 4.0tera hdd of nothing but mp3's. I have 2 folders that can't get renamed or deleted.

Which OS are you on?

Windows 7 can be a bit funny about permissions.
 

If it's not the last one on the tree it won't delete, you need to drag the last folder up to the parent folder or above the one you want to remove, then you could delete.
