    50 Alpha Numeric Folders in my C drive all appear to be Visual Studio updates that failed,...


    I have 50 folders all have identical contents but all have different alpha numeric names for the folder name. Example: 2189bc0661d90762628f or 2502c101d5b3a65d510e678fdcad.


    When I try to open them as the Administrator it says "You don't currently have permission to access this Folder" "Click Continue to permanently get access to this folder."


    I click continue the folder opens, has the same Visual Studio update files in it as the other folders. These folders can not be deleted, not even in safe mode.


    I right click on the folder select delete and it says:

    Folder Access Denied

    You'll need to provide administrator permission to delete this folder


    I click continue with the admin Icon Shield on it. It then says you require permission from SYSTEM to make changes to this folder.


    What can I do they are 11.6mb each. I would like them gone.

    :)

    visual studio

    If you start uninstalling bits and pieces then some parts of the program, or older programs, may fail to work properly. Did you select all these so called extras or were they installed automatically. If the latter then you may need them?

    "In Visual Studio 2015, Visual C++ is not installed by default. When installing, be sure to choose Custom installation and then choose the C++ components you require. Or, if Visual Studio is already installed, choose File | New | Project | C++ and you will
    be prompted to install the necessary components."
