View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a folder that has 25 subfolders and all folders are empty. When I try to delete them, an error appears stating that the folder contains names that are too long for the recycle bin. The next screen states that the source file name(s) are too long than is supported by the file system.
I would like to remove this folder and all its subfolders. I have tried everything from changing permissions to changing attributes and even trying DOS to remove the folders; no luck!
First off, sorry if this is in the wrong place. I had no idea what section to post this in.Today I was using a program for the game 'Minecraft' called MultiMC and when deleting files it created I don't need anymore, I came across a folder I couldn't open, delete or do anything with. When I try to open it it says '(location) is not accessible. Access is denied'. When I try delete it, it says 'You need permission to perform this action. You require permission from the computer's administrator to make changed to this folder' (yet, I am the administrator - the only account on the computer).

View 7 Replies View RelatedI installed Windows 7 on a clean hard drive with only one user account and password. After installing McAfee, the Windows password was not recognized, and all I could do was reinstall Windows and I did this without assigning a password. I could not solve the problem in Safe Mode. I see a folder called c:Windows.old, and the properties show it takes 15 gigabytes. I tried deleting this folder by putting a shortcut to explore.exe on the desktop and running as administrator, but it runs to a point and then says I don't have permission. I assume this folder exists because I had to reinstall Windows.

View 4 Replies View RelatedRecently I did a fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate (not an upgrade). It's a hard drive that had already had Win 7 Ultimate on it, but I had run into some snafus, so I just re-installed fresh. As you probably already know, Windows 7 detects previous Windows installations and puts it into a folder called "Windows.old". After my new installation was done, this Windows.old folder was pretty big, around 25 gigabytes. From some searching I did, I found out about using Disk Cleanup, and you put a checkmark in the box for Previous Windows installations, and then let the program run its course.

While the contents if the folder are no longer inside, the folder itself won't delete and gives me this message "Could not find this item. This is no longer located in C:. Verify the item's location and try again. I've tried making another and renaming it the same, but it doesn't work.
