You might try dropping to a DOS prompt. Start-Accessories-MS DOS Prompt. Then use the deltree command. What folder? What operating system?

My win89 machine does that sometimes. What generally happens is that I will delete a folder, and then notice that it's not gone. I try again to delete it and get an error message. A good swift press of the power button a couple of times always fixes it. In other words, it's already gone, just some bug keeps the icon around. Just re-boot, it should make all well for you.

next time instead of "deleting" the folder, drag it to the trashcan, works much better

Quoted: next time instead of "deleting" the folder, drag it to the trashcan, works much better Keep in mind, this drag and drop will only remove the shortcut icon from the desktop, you will still need to delete the actual folder from your explorer directory if you want the whole folder gone |
