Windows 10: Cannot Delete MSIXVC

So I have the Xbox game pass for windows and downloaded shadow of war alongside a few other games, after I deleted them I found this folder, which from the looks of it is connected to the windows store and how they install games. Thing is, I've uninstaled all games from the store and yet the fold still remains, right now taking 64 gigs of space off my somewhat small hard drive. After taking control of the window apps folder and being able to remove a few more undesirables out I still cannot delete those files, because they are being used by the system. Is there any way to stop them from being used so I can free up a bit of space and finally delete them?

Unable to delete a folder - Invalid folder name


Suggestion:

1. Run chkdsk x: /r to make sure that there's no HD corruption.
   x: is the drive containing the folder you want to delete.
2. Try to delete the folder again. If still does not work, go to step 3.
3. Download: Download - Linux Mint and create a bootable USB using: Rufus - Create bootable USB
4. Boot up with Linux Mint and try to delete the folder again.
   NOTE: Unlike WinPE. Linux does not have any Windows permission imposed to it so it is easier to delete.

 

Deleting contacts from Windows 10


When you say Windows Mail Live are you referring to Mail app or Windows Live Mail?

I suggest you to try the steps provided below and check if it helps.

• Open Windows Live Mail.
• Press Ctrl + 3 using your keyboard. Right-click on the contact to delete it if it is a single contact.
• Highlight all contacts by pressing Ctrl + A.
• Click Delete located on the Ribbon bar.
• Click OK when you see the message These contacts will also be deleted from Hotmail, Messenger, and other Windows Live services.

After following the steps above, all your contacts that you have manually added to your account will be deleted however, contacts coming from third-party sites such as Facebook will not be deleted unless you remove Facebook from your account.

For Mail app:

Open People app then delete the contact.

Partially installed game affecting system on boot. Cannot delete MSIXVC file

I started installing gears of war 5 on game pass but didnt complete the install. I just paused it and shut down the machine. On the next boot, it shows the american megatrends screen saying "please enter setup to recover BIOS settings". It only does this
on every clean boot. The PC works fine afterwards. I tried to uninstall all parts of the partially installed game using uninstalled software, but a file in the "MSIXVC" folder is in both hard drives (I have game pass games in both) only deletes on one drive,
the other says it can't delete as the file is open in system. When the computer restarts, the file is back in the drive that I deleted it on, and the drive which has the deletable file on switches. I presume deleting this file will fix my boot problems.
