Windows 10: System cannot find the file specified in the windows.old directory - I can't delete the...

Hello,


I have done the following:


1 Reduced the length of the directory tree for my former windows.old directory see message below.


2. Boot in Safe Mode


3. Ran chkdsk - no errors found


3. Ran DISM.exe /online /Cleanup_Image/Restore health - no errors found


4. Ran sfc /scannow - no errors found


5. Tried rmdir "c:/z" /s z used to be windows.old


Error message to above command:


c:\z\a\b\y\d\f\g\Localstate.. - The system cannot find the file specified


Please not the 2 dots after Localstate..


Thanks in advance for your help,


Joe

Directory Size Utility

First of all nice utility, Mindweaver!
Second of all, it's so nice to see that this section ain't dead.

I have a few questions/suggestions, maybe you'd want to see ...

• maybe you rename Get Folder button caption to something more intuitive? Add Folder, Get Folder Size, Check Folder Size or something like that?
  
• Could you add subfolder files to the right pane? (it can be a tickbox with include sub dirs)
  
• maybe you also add export list to excel?
  
• there's delete file button maybe you add delete folder button too?
  
• and finally maybe you can add UP button for directories?
