Windows 10: Deleting Norton Backup Folder N360_Backup

I used to have Norton 360 but no longer have it. When I had it, it apparently created a backup folder N360_Backup on an external hard drive. Since I no longer have the app, I want to delete the folder. I have tried changing permissions and changing it from read only but the folder properties will not change and there cannot delete the folder. When searching on web, all instructions start with "start Norton 360" which I can't do.I would appreciate any suggestions

:)

 

Trouble deleting a folder

Thanks for the suggestion but it says "delete folder failed for E:\....." for each folder I try.

*Confused

Will I be forever stuck with these unnecessary folders? *Oh Well hwell:

 

Software to monitor a folder, backup, then delete?

Is there such a software that will allow the monitoring of a folder to not only backup, but also delete the data? For example, if I was to have a netbook, and it has the built-in card adapter for my camera, I can just copy all the files over to the netbook in a specific folder (ie, ::Temp Pictures), then the next time it connects to the internet/network it will search the folder for any new files, copy them over to my main PC, then delete the Temp Pictures data?

I've been looking into doing this, googling and whatnot, and it seems like there are a LOT of options for monitoring folders for updates, new data, copying, etc, but I haven't quite found one that allows you to delete after copying.

Thanks! *Smile

I still think its hard to beat using NTI shadow for something like this. Though what you need is to add one more sync folder to your scheme in order for it to delete files, remember it sync/backup, so have your pictures synched to computer is pretty easy, after its on your computer, sync it to another folder that moves the files in the original directory, then when the next sync run, it will see the directory empty and remove the files.
