Subject: Unable to delete read-only attribute folder - access denied
Hi,
I've been trying to remove quite a few (>10) read-only folders & their
subfolders by following the workaround instructions found at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/256614, but I'm still unable to remove the
folders.
I created a new registry key UseSystemForSystemFolders and modified the new
value to Type 1 in Registry Editor. Then I tried to use the attrib command
prompt to change the read-only attribute by using attrib -r +s C:\V\Vids. But
it says Access denied.
What else can I do to get rid of these folders? Someone please help me out,
thanks very much in advance!
Sincerely,
Regine
