If you need permission to delete the folder the 'permission' box should have
a 'continue' button. Pressing continue should take you through the various User Account Controls to enable you to delete the folder, i.e., if necessary asking for the administrator password. If this isn't happening then try right clicking Windows explorer (start>all programs>accessories>Windows Explorer) and select the 'run as administrator' option. |

Since we don't know the source of your folder, try to gain Full Control of
the folder by right clicking folder > Properties > Security and set the correct parameters for Full Control. Also, you can try to delete the folder by drilling down to the files and start deleting from there. Hope this helps... |

You can take ownership of the folder, and use a group like Administrators that has full rights on the folder or an individual user account that has full rights on the folder. That individual user account can be the the user part of the users/admin account, which is based on the user-id you use to login as user/admin. You are part of User and Administrators group as user/admin on Vista. http://www.nirmaltv.com/2008/07/11/h...ders-in-vista/ |
