    Forza files not deleted after uninstall. Can't delete them myself. 100Gb used up.


    Hi, as many others have complained about, sometimes xbox game files get stuck in the install folder, and they can't be deleted even after playing with the security settings and CMD. I'm listing out what i've tried below, but I'm stuck with ~100Gb of used space i need back, and no community posts or googling have managed to solve it yet. Things i've tried:- using cmd to set permissions on the folder- changing the permissions using the properties menu- going into safe mode and changing permissions there- different user accounts on the PC all are admins- installing the game again then uninstall

    :)

    can't uninstall oblivion

    agree, manually delete the folder, clean the register and delete from Add/remove list *Smile Forza files not deleted after uninstall. Can't delete them myself. 100Gb used up. :)

    EDIT: or even better, just delete the folder, if don't want to waist your time... *Big Grin Forza files not deleted after uninstall. Can't delete them myself. 100Gb used up. :D

    Deleting everything after uninstall!!!

    Hi I seem to have a problem everytime when I uninstall a program (for example saling media sync) , it leaves behind a bunch of registries and other things from it. Is there a software or something that will delete these things left behind after an uninstallation? I currently use CCleaner, but it seems to still not do the job. I know this for a fact because before installing Salling Media Sync I had about 40.8 gigs on my ssd drive, but now I after the uninstallating for some reason have 39.8 gigs. This problem might seem minor for some, but I just like deleting any unecessary things that I don't need on my computer.

    Thanks

    Deleting ATI Drivers

    How can I delete every last ATI driver from my pc? I've uninstalled them and used Driver cleaner Pro and theres always files that say they are deleted but then stay.

    P.S sorry, I know this should actually be in the software forum.
