  1. SystemRestore folder in System Volume Information folder DELETION


    Hello, I have Windows 10 Pro. I tried to restore my system to a previous restore point recently but this failed IDK why but no problem, my problem was fixed..But I found that the C drive became filled with 20 GB out of nowhere... After searching in this problem I found that a folder called SystemRestore was created with 22 GBs in System Volume Information in my C drive.How can I delete it as I don't want those restore points anymore and the system restore has already failed??My approach was the following:1- Took the ownership from both folders and tried deleting the SystemRestore folder but no

    :)

    Is $Recycle.Bin and System Volume Information folders safe?

    Recently, I see some strange folders named "$Recycle.Bin" and "System Volume Information" which are attributed
    hidden. When I search the internet for these, I became literally confused! Some say, it is a virus/malware (named
    Recycler) while others speak of this being a system file.

    Notifications:

    • When I tried to delete $Recycle.Bin folder, it requires the administrative power, and if granted, gets deleted. But in a second, it also gets replaced with a new folder just with the same name. So literally, I am not able to remove this
      folder.
    • When I tried to open the System Volume Information folder, It shows a pop-up displaying access denied ...
    • When I tried to delete the System Volume Information folder, it doesn't happen, and displays the same access denied information.
    • The two folders appears on every partitions available.
    If these are some kind of malware, why is my Mcafee Internet Security unable to detect it?
