Windows 10: How do I delete a file that says "Windows cannot find ___. Make sure you typed the name...

Hello, so I am having some issues with storage on my computer, so in an attempt to solve this issue, I went to Storage Settings as you can see here:



I then clicked on "Apps & Features" due to it taking up the vast majority of storage on my computer, and filtered it by size. One app taking up a huge amount of space on my computer is Elder Scrolls Online which is 60.1 GB. I thought I deleted the app awhile ago, so was surprised to see it still taking up my storage, and naturally I tried to get rid of it. So I clicked on the name, and then clicked "Uninstall" however this error message then popped up:



Not only that, but there are many other apps displaying the same error message, including Diablo III which, as you see in the screenshot, takes up quite a bit of storage. So how do I fix this problem? I desperately need to clear up storage and couldn't find help anywhere else on this particular problem.

:)

 

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 Hiberfil & Pagefile

You would have to move your Page File to a different drive to get rid of that file, however you can make is smaller by adjusting the size in Windows.

To get rid of Hyberfile.sys you need to disable hibernation by doing the following:

• Click Start, and then type cmd in the Start Search box.
• In the search results list, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as Administrator.
• When you are prompted by User Account Control, click Continue.
• At the command prompt, type powercfg.exe /hibernate off, and then press ENTER.
• Type exit and then press ENTER to close the Command Prompt window

Then you can delete the hyberfile.sys file.
