Windows 10: Unable to delete Adobe: requires special permission. 2009 notes useless.

Cannot update access for administrator without receiving error.

Removing Adobe blocked by permissions.

Any ideas?


Thank you.

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.

 

"You require special permission from (myself) to make changes to this folder."

Recently, i have downloaded some files and i was wanting to delete them because they were useless, it said, "You require special permission from (myself) to make changes to this folder.". Its my computer and i'm the administrator.
One thing I've notice when i was buzzing around the the security tab in properties is that the trusted installer have special permissions, and i'm the owner of the file. And sometimes when i try to rename or move the file, it will say "the file is open in
another program.". I've seen many people both of my issue but none worked. One thing i didn't try is to log in to the built in administrator account.

 

Unable to delete a particular folder. Error: "You require permission from Administrators to make changes to this folder."

Windows Edition 10 Version 1809, OS build 18272.1000

After installing the latest creators update I have the following issue. When using Explorer to delete a folder that is not empty I always get this issue: "You require permission from Administrators to make changes to this folder." It doesn't matter
if I just created it or not. I can remove the folder just fine using rmdir <folder> /s /q.

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1. Using explorer create the folder c:\users\rob\a\b\c.
2. Using explorer try to delete folder c:\users\rob\a.
   1. It fails with "You require permission from Administrators to make changes to this folder."
3. Using explorer delete the folder c:\users\rob\a\b\c -works just fine
4. Using explorer delete the folder c:\users\rob\a\b -works just fine
5. Using explorer delete the folder c:\users\rob\a -works just fine.

This will also reproduce the issue

1. mkdir c:\users\rob\a
2. mkdir c:\users\rob\a\b
3. mkdir c:\users\rob\a\b\c
4. Using explorer try to delete folder c:\users\rob\a.
   1. It fails with "You require permission from Administrators to make changes to this folder."

This is a new behavior and is causing some build tools to fail.

Thanks,

Rob
