    So there is this random empty Linux folder that I can't delete. Does anyone know what this is and/or how to delete it? empty Linux folder d2dc202b-6de1-4b8b-a6b9-8d6b424cfc01?upload=true.png

    Here is a screenshot of it ^ empty Linux folder 6bffec32-c4e9-4096-8a82-35fc42a7c190?upload=true.png

    No delete button when I right click it ^ empty Linux folder e9b59e41-db14-4a3b-bed5-2914cb6bb523?upload=true.png

    Right clicking and selecting properties just makes an error message ^

    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.

    Guide: How to enable, use, and configure SLI on Linux.

    I guess the next logical step would be to report on the performance you can get with SLI in Linux. That'd be my suggestion anyway.
