Removing Files

Hello,

Can somebody please tell me how to remove some unwanted jpg from my hard
dirve? They reside at ;

c:\Users\Whoever\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Mail\news.usenethost.com
(3)\alt.binaries.Whatever

My probelm is that I can't find the AppData, or any of the subsequent files.
In any case, the option to delete these files after I've done a search for
jpg is not available. Please help me remove my unwated pictures.

Re: Removing Files

Re: Removing Files

AppData is a hidden folder. To see it you must tick the option in windows explorer to see hidden files (folder options/view tab). Once in the folder, try to delete them. If not, you may need to take ownership. Info here: Take Ownership of file
