    I can't delete the folder "MountUUP"


    Whenever I try to delete a folder called mountUUP My computer says I need permission from "ALPHA-PC" Which is what I named my pc. Does anyone know how to delete it without going into safe mode or things like that? It kinda makes me scared to do those kinds of things because I don't want to break my computer.Please help me delete this folder, It's 14 gb and I don't have a lot of space for other stuff.Thanks!

    :)

    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.

  4. I can't delete the folder "MountUUP"

    How can I QUICKLY and EASILY INSTANTLY delete the 4TB MountUUP folder?

    Currently Build 19033

    How can I QUICKLY and EASILY INSTANTLY delete the 4 TeraByte plus MountUUP folder???

    I downloaded Build 19035 from UUPDump and when it's creating the ISO file it creates this folder in the root of the drive where you've downloaded the new build.

    It has a whole lot of different security policy settings and is a nightmare to try and delete!

    Thanks for any help!

    BTW Shawn - I have tried to delete it several times using your "empty folder" reg file but no good.
