Will not delete
please help me, i am having real trouble deleting files!
It started when i deleted an old Administrator account (not the first one made), and i chose to delete the files.
then i then came to realise that the files were STILL located in C:\Users\[accountname], will all the directories, [documents, music, downloads, pictures] etc.
so, i then tried to delete them and was granted with the lovely " You Need Permission to Perform This Action ", so i went to security, granted all permssions to myself, and granted myself ownership and it still would not work. i then tried deleting the files with UAC turned off,
and there was no change. i then tried using the command prompt to fix it,
doing all the del [drive] [directory] etc, and refered to the " /? " for help, and it still would not work.
i then tried to move the sub files into new files seperately both on my desktop and in the C:\ drive, and it still gave me the same permission warning! the hidden administrator feature also does nothing!!!
i am REALLY stuck, i cannot shift these files, its only 6G, but memory that is being used for nothing, and i need!!!,
please help me. |
