    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 uninstalling (i had to delete nearly every app on my pc to do this. incredibly annoying)

    - change the install folder location in the xbox app (in case it unhooked the permissions from the old folder somehow)

    - (updated based on agent input) Try disabling 3rd party services

    fwiw, i'm on windows 11. Please do not suggest anything already suggested above, I have spent way too much time scouring the web for solutions and coming up with the usual recommendations which are mostly above.

    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.

    Deleting contacts from Windows 10


    When you say Windows Mail Live are you referring to Mail app or Windows Live Mail?

    I suggest you to try the steps provided below and check if it helps.


    • Open Windows Live Mail.
    • Press Ctrl + 3 using your keyboard. Right-click on the contact to delete it if it is a single contact.
    • Highlight all contacts by pressing Ctrl + A.
    • Click Delete located on the Ribbon bar.
    • Click OK when you see the message These contacts will also be deleted from Hotmail, Messenger, and other Windows Live services.

    After following the steps above, all your contacts that you have manually added to your account will be deleted however, contacts coming from third-party sites such as Facebook will not be deleted unless you remove Facebook from your account.

    For Mail app:

    Open People app then delete the contact.

    Hope this helps in resolving the issue. If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.
