Cant delete as "The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable"
Hi
Have a folder with some subfolders that just wont delete. Can move and rename. Cannot cut and paste to another drive.
I have tried the following which results in the same, just doesnt delete.
Takeownership
Grant me admin
CMD Prompt running with admin del [foldername]
Started Windows 10 in safe mode tried to delete - stays where it is.
Odd thing is this folder was originally in my Windows10 documents, I uninstalled a program called Kodi and it appeared to uninstall but left this folder behind.
I can browse the folder. Rename the main folder and its sub components. JUst wont delete.
Unable to delete the main folder or any subfolders/files.
No error messages or anything else to report. Very very odd.
Tried scanning with rootkit and antivirus just in case. Nothing flagged up.
Is it possible this is saved on a corrupt portion of the SSD drive?
When I go to the following location (I renamed it the main to stuck directory)
I then discovered the following sub folders called reports
"Location is not available" [Directory and sub directory names listed below]"The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable."
C:\Stuck directory\addons\plugin.audio.radio_de\resources\language.
C:\Stuck directory\userdata\addon_data\script.extendedinfo\TheMovieDB
C:\Stuck directory\userdata\addon_data\script.skinshortcuts
Have rebooted the system doing chkdsk /r etc. No luck.
Any solutions greatly appreciated.
Thanks
