  1. Need help deleting folders *URGENT*


    Alright, so recent I downloaded CCleaner cause I heard good things and it snuck in the Avast anti-virus download without me looking. For the longest time I truely didn't care but ever since then my computer kept being bogged down and slow. I looked into things and it turned out to be Avast. Now im trying to get rid of it but it wont let me! Whenever I try to delete it it says "You require permission from the Administrators to make changes to this folder".

    What is this? Am I not the Administrator? Someone help me get rid of this Virus basically.

    :)

    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.

    Okay I don't see any known troublemakers in the shell extensions shown in explorer tab.
