I cannot delete a folder I created.
It is not protected from owerwrite or any other protection.
I recieve following message when I try to delete it;

"It is not possible to delete the choosen folder".
"it is not possible to find the files in the folder"
"Type the correct search path and try again"

Is the folder corrupted and is their some way to remove it?

Clarifications

I have encountered this problem with Windows XP Pro and XP MCE operating systems. Try this:

1) Log off
2) Log on
3) Try deleting the folder

This works 90% of the time for me. If this fails, please reply by subsequent post and perhaps I can craft a solution for you.

right click on it and select delete.

I tried as you said but the problem remains. The folder does not want to be deleted.

It may help.
