    So I followed these steps:


    • I opened my search box.
    • In the search box, type Admin, I right clicked Disk Cleanup and selected run as Administrator.
    • In the Disk Cleanup dialog, I clicked Clean up system files.
    • I select the Previous Windows installation(s) check box, and then clicked OK.
    • I then clicked Delete files.


      the folder is still there.... any ideas what to do now???
    have you shutdown and rebooted windows since you did the above

    When I delete mine it usually leaves behind a couple of .dll files but will usually disappear after restart.
