So i rebuilt my computer to try and help a steam issue i was getting earlier in the month. My Doc/Settings folder was private so nobody else on the computer could view it. But since i didnt delete it before the rebuild its still there. And it's security settings are older than the Administrator, so i cant delete it under that account. Is there any way to bypass folder permissions and delete it? (theres like 20G in there =[ )

(theres like 20G in there =[ ) [/I][/INDENT]

Can i get 5G's if i fix it? lol

But i think this could work Go to the folder, Right Click, Properties, Security, Your Account Name, Edit, Check the boxes for control, Try to delete.

Another option is to delete everything inside the folder from the inside out.

Doesnt work. Wont let me edit the propreties, dont have access.
And i cant go inside it to look at it to try and delete anything. Plus the all the files inside are also out-of-access.

Ok try the program Unlocker Unlocker - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com (http://download.cnet.com/Unlocker/3000-2248_4-10493998.html) After installing you should be able to right click the folder your trying to delete then go to the option Unlocker and from there you should be able to delete it.
