Cannot delete the user folder?

I can't delete the folder \\JONESPC\Users\Jack2 I tried to use regedit, but just ended up with a new \\JONESPC\Users\Jack2.JONESP folder

This problem occurred when I tried to change the username to my main account I could do successfully by using the mode without fail & regedit
But in the process, I created a new account I wanted to delete it later
I went through the normal process via Add or remove user accounts & then click on delete the user account & then remove all files
But this folder Jack2 remains!

Then try:

  1. Safe boot mode.
  2. Log in as Jack.
  3. Property to enter the profile folders that bothers you - see here.
  4. Rename the folders unwanted profile by adding the suffix .junk.
  5. Wait a week.
  6. If all goes well, remove the folders of .junk.

  • Cannot delete the old folder separate disk windows

    I had a system OS 3 for a while, Vista, Win7 RC and Win7 Pro.

    Win7 RC is pleased and I want to delete records from his drive to free up space.

    I took possession of the folder (including subfolders) windows and my account is an administrator with full control account, BUT when I try to delete the old directory of windows first it says I need give permission, I click on continue, she goes through the files, and then a box indicates that I need permission from account owner Joan to continue.

    I'm logged into this account. This account is me, but when I click on continue, it says access denied.

    It's the same with the old directory program files.

    I can't delete, or the old directory of users.

    None of them is used. All are owned by mey account (there are only two accounts put in place on my PC and mine's administrator.)

    I am running windows 7 Pro 64 bit installed on my E drive.

    The files that I want to delete are on the c drive.

    How this computer to recognize that my admin account has full right, remove the obsolete operating system?

    Can archaeologist, you access the OS Win 7 RC?

    If so, use it "Folder Options" in the control panel.

    You say that you are the administrator, you should be able to do.

    You also try to remove Vista, as well?

    Do the same with this.

    Why you be "denied access" is... because these system files 'hidden '.

  • Cannot delete the file/folder even in Administrator Mode or Mode safe

    I. hate. Vista. Windows XP has NEVER been this difficult to work with!

    I recently installed MagicISO. Didn't like it, so I deleted it. He left behind a small dll file and the folder. I wanted to remove both, couldn't.

    Tried safe mode. FAILED

    Administrator account I tried. FAILED

    Tried both together. FAILED

    Help me please? How could I not have permission to delete a file in administrator mode? Seriously, Windows Vista is just messed up all unrecognizable... * rant rant rant *.

    In fact, I thought that the answer.

    Went to safe mode.

    Used ShellExViewer (RUN AS ADMIN) and disabled MagicISO.

    Walked over to the directory and delete the .dll and the folder that it is.

    Restarted my computer in normal mode.

    Problem solved.

    Thank you all for helping me. I appreciate it a lot! I don't know what I'd do without you people. : D

  • Cannot delete the file/folder

    It is a problem of two parts:

    1. There is an mp3 file on my desk that I can open it, but I can't move or delete.  I created this mp3 myself and it's on my desktop for about two months.

    When I try to delete this file, a preparation to recycle bar rises, saying "to discover the elements" but never progresses.  I can't close without stop force windows Explorer.

    2. a friend was recently transferred several files containing MP3s on my desk.  When I open the folder, windows Explorer starts blowing (the charge of the Bar starts to slowly fill but taking so long, I don't know that never completed) and my CPU load goes way up.  I can't open any mp3 file (after 3 minutes, VLC media player opens and the file name appears in the playlist, but does not have).  I am also unable to move or delete these folders.

    I ran a virus scan and nothing is detected.

    When I try to delete these files/folders, a bar of recycling starts, but never progresses and after awhile I cancel it.

    How can I delete these files/folders?

    Chris, try this command at the command prompt:

    cd\recycler
    attrib - r s h * / s/d
    del * / f/s/q
    RD /s /q.

  • Cannot delete the user (PCName) to network on the Windows 8.1 desktop locations

    Hello

    I decided to build a new office and built once connected to my home network and "found" an old PC and quickly added 3 icons "Windows Media Player" under the network locations tab of the computer in Windows Explorer.

    Each icon is labeled with (pcname) username, where username is a user account on the old PC, for example Paul (OurOldPC).

    I am now trying to delete these 3 locations 'network' as this old PC is is more work, but try as I might I have not been able to do.

    It seemed that it would be easy, I right click and then clicked on 'remove the instrument. He asked if I was sure that I wanted to remove it and I clicked on Yes. However, it is still there!

    I had a glance through the registry and users/Paul/AppData but impossible to spot anything that had the air associated with the 3 locations.

    I'd appreciate help on what is frustrating to have these 3 places to hang out.

    When you connect under a different name, that the locations do not show, then it seems to be something specific to my account.

    How can I remove these 3 places?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Paul

    1. You are using cable or wireless network connection?
    2. You use a third-party antivirus program?
    3. You get the error message?

    Hi John,.

    In response to your questions above:

    I use a wired network

    I use AVG Antivirus

    I have an error message.

    While previously the solution I tried the regedit approach, but there is no profile other than the one that had an entry by name: ProfileName: data network.

    Have to admit that I was not deleted as I was a little hesitant that it would be useful.

    What I was doing well, it's once again try to remove office (x) via Windows Explorer.

    I already said that right-click on the icon and slide on "Remove the instrument" has not removed the device, but I have since found that the selection of the device then goes to the "Media access" icon and selecting 'Disconnect from the media server' work.

    I think I was probably made the wrong way before. My second approach has worked.

    Thank you very much for you help in this area and I'm sorry to have wasted your time.

  • Cannot delete the user

    Hello

    I managed to get the Download CSV feature work by twisting the adobe example csv file. Now, I think I've cracked it I am trying to remove the test users so I can start over, but it is not letting me delete "managers". Please notify:

    cannotdeleteuser.PNG

    Hi James,

    As a bonus, you can not remove a handler directly. To remove a handler, you must first remove all employees under him, and then remove the handler.

    Just a note, a user once deleted, is not added to the first.

    Kind regards

  • Cannot delete the folder of the user

    Help me, I can't delete the user record, even I have loged on as an administrator. I used Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit

    Please give feed back imiedietly

    If you are referring to in the record of user directly under the users profile folder, it is protected.  The only way to delete normally is to delete the account of user via the control panel / user accounts and choose to also delete user files when you are prompted.
    It would be foolish if you want to keep the user account, but delete the folder of the user.

  • Cannot delete the folder where the backup is saved.

    I have recently reinstalled Windows.

    I have restored my backup in a 'special' folder on the desktop, so I can have the most control over what to keep and what to delete.

    now, after I copied the stuff I wanted, I try to remove this unnecessary 'special' folder but Windows won't let me delete it.

    I tried to regain control and possession but still get an error Windows cannot delete the folder. and with two options, "try again" and "Cancel".

    Can you help me? This file is large and takes place on my hard drive.

  • Cannot delete the folder in My Documents no matter what

    I have Windows 7 Home Premium. Recently, I've migrated all my data from one computer to the other. I accidentally created a new folder in "My Documents" or in the library and there is nothing in it and I can not in any way shape delete it. I tried all the guests of cmd and tips, UAC issues, permissions and everything. Nothing works. I simply want the missing file.

    This file was created on a remote computer, then moved to distance on the current system. Then from there, I could not delete the empty folder in Win7 HP.

    Any suggestions would be helpful. And believe me, I tried everything so I hope someone will answer. Thank you...

    I found the ultimate answer. I downloaded 7Zip from www.7zip.org. I installed and opened the 7-Zip File Manager. Moved the folder on the desktop and renamed it a shorter name. Righ-click, deleted, then restarted. Everything has disappeared. Tested on XP, all editions of Vista and all editions of Windows 7, including Windows 7 Enterprise. Works like a charm. Other programs, including everything you mentioned with TweakNow and CCleaner doesn't even come close to that. No prompt needed control, etc.

  • Impossible to remove an unknown account, get the error 'cannot delete the unknown account because this object inherits permissions from its parent.

    I have several programs that when I go to security there is an unknown account and when I try to delete unknown account I get this message that you cannot delete the Unknown(S-1...) account because this object inherits from its parent perssions. To delete the Unknown(S-1...) account, you must prevent this object from inheriting permissions. Turn off the option for the inheritance of permissions and then try to delete the Unknown(S-1...) account again. I tried the edit and advance features in respect of security without success. Why have I not control over security permissions?

    Found a solution to this problem.

    Go to the folder parent of the folder that contains the files with this unknown account number:
    1. right click on the PARENT folder, and then click Properties.
    2. on the Security tab, go to the advanced options (bottom window)
    3. in the new window, click the button change the permissions in the bottom.
    4. Select the Group (NOT AUTHENTICATED, just of users USERS) users
    5. check "replace all permissions of child object with permissions inheritable of this object.
    6. click on the OK button or apply and done, fixed number.

    Hope this helps anyone else having this problem, for me it happened after reinstallation of win 7 on the same machine and keep my images on another partition, so it was spared by the new facility, so the old user account was always on the file permissions.

      Go to the control panel. There are several ways to do this, but the most common is to go to the Windows Start menu and click on "Control Panel" on the right side. Follow whatever it is more convenient for you.

    2. 2

      Click on "user accounts" in the window that appears. Or, you see the standard view (with lines of icons) or the display of the categories (which is explicit). Both have a shortcut to the user accounts Control Panel.
