Strange Folder

[James55]

I have a folder on my computer that is empty but I cant delete it for the life of me. Its a folder that I extracted a game to . Had to reboot in the middle of installing it and now cant get rid of the folder.Tried in safe mode but no luck. Any suggestions?

How do I delete an "undeletable" file?

Thanks to MS-MVP Kelly Theriot for this tip.

Open a Command Prompt window and leave it open. Close all open programs. Click Start, Run and enter TASKMGR.EXE Go to the Processes tab and End Process on Explorer.exe. Leave Task Manager open. Go back to the Command Prompt window and change to the directory the AVI (or other undeletable file) is located in. At the command prompt type DEL <filename> where <filename> is the file you wish to delete. Go back to Task Manager, click File, New Task and enter EXPLORER.EXE to restart the GUI shell. Close Task Manager.

Even though its a harddrive, I better move it to software
