Can't delete a folder

[3bbb7]

I was trying to install league of legends but after it wouldnt install I decided to uninstall it. I did that and theres still the C:\Riot Games folder. I am trying to delete it but it wont work, it says you need admin rights and I press Continue then It says this:
You require permissions from Administrators to change this.
It gives me TRY AGAIN or CANCEL.

I cannot delete the folder. There is no uninstall league of legends option anymore either

how do I delete this its so stupid

Reboot and try again, if that don't work, good luck, have fun.

Reboot and try deleting it once more

If those things don't work try starting Windows in safe mode (Press F5 when starting up)
Then try and delete it

Boot up a Linux Live CD, mount the HDD and delete the folder.

Boot up a Linux Live CD, mount the HDD and delete the folder.

How do I mount the C drive? Then do I have to delete the folder from terminal or can I do it with a GUI? I am not good with the terminal.

Rebooting didn't fix the issue? Was hoping one wouldn't have to go the round-about way.

In Puppy it should show up on the desktop.
Just click it and it should be mounted.
Then a GUI pops up and shows the contents of the HDD.
Delete the folder and unmount the HDD.
Reboot and you're done ;]

As far as I remember, directories located on the System drive require you to be on an Administrator's account to remove them - if you don't have such privileges on your account, you need to boot a different OS and delete the folder that way. I'd probably be a lot easier for you if you just asked the administrator of your (probably shared) computer to do it for you.

In ubuntu, just go to, places - windows. You can prob do it from a live cd or usb.

My problem was the pmb.exe (pando media booster) that league installs was still running and kept running even after a reboot. I uninstalled pando media booster and it deleted fine

Glad it was resolved!
