    Files Deletion Denied by DESKTOP-7VG8SI1\infer User profile


    Hello I recently got a new laptop with Windows 10 and I'm trying to delete a directory in my Program Files(x86) directory. I botched a mod installation and I can't get rid of the file I have an admin profile, but whenever I try to delete it, it gets denied by a user profile called "DESKTOP-7VG8SI1\infer". I have granting myself full control over the directory through the security screen in properties and turned off read-only. I have also tried rebooting after doing this, but it has no effect. I have also tried File Assassin, but I am unable to get it to delete directories. Is there anything else I can do to delete this file?

    :)

    Desktop shortcuts

    Shortcuts can "live" in two places:

    • In your own profile folder (C:\Users\Luke\Desktop). They are visible to you only.
    • In the public profile folder (C:\Users\Public\Desktop). They are visible to all users.
    You should now know why the deleted shortcut disappeared from both desktops.

    Deleting a shortcut does NOT delete the file or folder it refers to. I recommend you run some tests to confirm this.

    I am the only user but, suddenly, I am being denied permission to delete, copy various files.

    I am the sole user. Looking at 'Group or user names' I have

    Authenticated users

    System

    Administrators (DESKTOP-8AG5VOQ\Administrators)

    Users (DESKTOP-8AG5VOQ\Users)

    First and last do not have full control. I change to full control, but reverts afte re-accessing.

    Solved it myself. Have to delete all the files within the directory before deleting the directory itself. It's tedious but it works.
