Deleting Win 10 System Folders
Hi everyone, happy new year!
I accidentally booted my PC a month ago with the boot disk in the wrong physical location. Windows seems to have created a Recovery Folder on one of my drives that is causing a problem. The folder is hidden but doesn't even show up when you select to show Hidden Folders. The only reason I know it's there is because some applications are displaying it as there. File Manager does not. I am assuming it is also marked as a System Folder. The folder is empty. Now the issue is that it causes some applications problems so it would be nice to delete it. Since it was only created in error and doesn't seem to be used, I guess this is OK. I could format the drive but that's a bit drastic. It would be nice to just delete the folder, but Windows resists! It simply states that the delete is denied. I also have limited access to the rights and so on because File Manager won't even display it. Does anyone know a way to delete it? Perhaps a nice easy application!! ?
