Have you tried rebooting and deleting from safe mode? Or
maybe deleting it with command prompt (dos emulator)

Hello Michael,

I booted up this morning and tried and was able to delete the folder. Is
there a protocol that a person needs to reboot to remove a folder, or is
this just another of the millions of quirks in Microsoft products. Sheesh.

God Bless,

Mark
