Can't Delete System Volume Information
I've got some USB flash drives that have System Volume Information folders on
them. I want to delete this folder, and all within, but even when I remove the read only attribute, I still can't delete it. When I go back to see the attribute, it's always changed back to read only. What can I do? |

What can I do? Format it. Yes, that's another solution. Next time I'll do that. The folder will simply be recreated the next time you insert the flash drive into a Windows PC, right? |

For the most part, you're right. I just checked about 20 of my flash drives, and only 2 do not have, and don't reproduce, that file. I did not knnow this. |
