Undeleteable folder

by pgclynes . Updated 20 years, 9 months ago

My WIN XP Home directory regenerated a folder in Doc & Settings recently – July05, almost empty but for a subfolder July05, itself almost empty, except – to at least 22 iterations.Now it stalls my virus checker (VET, updated daily) so it has to go.

I can’t remove it. Normal delete, the “name is too long for the recycle bin”, Command prompt DEL and Shift-Delete don’t work and I can’t drag it to the recycle bin. And the sequence keeps declaring itself Read-only. Any suggestions please?
