| | Cant Delete Backup Folder My computer crashed a few days ago, and Windows made a backup of all my old files. The backup is quite large, and I dont need anything in it, yet I cannot delete the folder. Ive determined the problem is that all the files do not allow the Administators to modify or delete anything. If I change the ownership and permissions on a folder, it only effects the folder itself, any files and subfolders are not effected. The backup folder is very large, it contains almost 8GB, and 30,000+ files in 6,000+ folders. Does anybody know of anyway I can delete/change the permissions to all of these at once? |
