I had same issue/similar issue , explorer had somehow added a space to the end of the name, making it invalid. Had to use the dir command with the /X switch to get the short name to show up and use that to delete the folder.
 
Ask someone to help you using Team Viewer. I'm sure a member here would be glad to help. I've done it for many people to help them out.
 
Pussy. I did but nothing happen. Like I said before, I don't think command prompt will work. It won't work to delete. I try Unlocker. Nothing happen. I try File Shredder. Nothing happen. I try restart. Nothing happen. I try log off. Nothing happen. Doy ou have better idea than everyone gave me advice how to use it to remove? Like I said, those three folder is pretty d*** lock delete. Plus, I already clean out Recycle Bin. I try delete it, nothing happen. So. Anyone who have better idea than everyone suggest to me?
 
On a serious note, just right click on your task bar at the bottom and hit 'Task Manager'. Once you're there, head over to the 'Processes' tab and look for explorer.exe. Click on that, then hit 'End Task'. Then head over to the 'Applications' or 'Windows' tab (forgot which one it's called), then hit 'New Task...' and type in explorer.exe .
Based on the advice others have given you and the fact that they didn't work, I doubt this will either, but it's still worth a try IMO.
 
Is that undeletable inside another folder?
If so try the ownership trick again or check if you can delete it while in windows 7 safemode.
 
bradzx you need to chill the fuck out. I was just passing through this thread, and saw how terrible you're treating people trying to help you because what they saw doesn't work. Now, quit being a little bitch and trying using some problem solving skills. We're here to help, not hold your hand.

Restart->Safe mode->Delete folder?
Login as another Admin and try deleting the folder.
Not sure if File Assassin works on folders but worth a shot.
Run a antivirus program just as a precaution.

I try, but nothing happen.

How I can turn to safe mode? Yes, it seem like lock delete thing.

Edit - I try use safe mode, nothing happen. Well one last chance for ownership thing. Ownership, don't fail me.
 
Right after your PC restarts press F8 a few times until you get some MS-DOS options and choose boot in safe mode.
 
:wtf: I am biggest deepest trouble right now. Everything people suggest me, all of them are not. *sighs* Anymore idea or that all?
