  1. delete windows 11 download


    I went thru the command prompt as administrator to delete the download of windows 11. I don't want it right now and it takes up room on the hard drive. I got to the windows/softwaredistributiondownload and it says there are no contents. But it keeps prompting me to restart my computer to install it. Where do I go from here? I want the download to be deleted.

    :)

    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.
