Can't Delete Windows.old folder or subfolders.
After doing an In-place Reinstall of WIndows 10 X64 to fix update problems. I ran the Clean Windows Files Program to Delete all 'Old' Windows Folders & files. All seemed to go well until I looked at C:\ dribve and see that Windows.old still exists. I've tried everything to delete it; ven had Microsoft support log onto my PC and they couldn't delete the Directory and all sub-directories there-in. After Microsoft logged out I see now that the Directory viewed under Command Prompt shows as...
C:\Windows.Old.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}> In other If i do words, If do a change directory as C:\>cd Windows.Old I get... The System Cannot Find The Path Specified. If I do... cd Windows.old.* it changes to the long name as above??? When I open the C drive and just try to delete what's listed only as Windows.old, it says Could Not Find This Item.This is no longer located in C:\. Any ides how to delete this would be appreciated!
UPDATE
Just now Realize This is GOD MODE that was renamed Windows.Old Not sure how that happened so I guess the Old Windows Files did get deleted and somehow this God Mode got put in my C: drive named as Windows.old. NOW, how do I get rid of this or turn it off or whatever?
All that happened was the Folder, sub-folders and programs withing got Properties changed to Hidden,
