Solve : Need help with an undeletable folder.?

Answer»

Have you tried hooking it up to another COMPUTER and deleting the FOLDER that way? I have seen this before. It normally HAPPENS when some A$$hole thinks its funny to plant a file in a zip file that has nonstandard characters. They are ASCII characters that windows can't show without a ADD on. And even than its a real pain to get rid of the file. It’s normally the way some hacker groups "tag" a machine to show that they were able to get to a machine.

The fastest way to get rid of it is to copy the stuff you want to KEEP off the drive and than format it.

You can try to install a unicode text editor and sometimes it will let windows show the file name.
