    Downloads folder is being unresponsive


    So this morning I hopped on my pc and went to download a library for Kontakt, if any of you are familiar, and I am absolutely certain the library was legitimate. After downloading the library, but not installing I believe it is still a zip file but I can't exactly double check, i'd shut down my computer, but noticed it took much longer for it to turn off by a good 10-20 seconds. Now I've hopped back on and noticed that I cannot open my downloads folder on my m.2 ssd, which is my standard storage device as I also have an external HDD without it just flat out not responding.

    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.
