Deleting/renaming/moving some files in Windows 7 can be quite tricky, annoying sometimes even. Therefore, here's a little guide to delete undeletable files in windows 7:
1) Press this combination:
Windows-Key + R
2) In this new window, type:
CMD
3) the old DOS-window will appear.
a) For Files:
--> type this in:
Code:
takeown /f file_name /d y
icacls file_name /grant administrators:F
b) For Directories
--> Type this in:
Code:
takeown /f directory_name /r /d y
icacls directory_name /grant administrators:F /t
As a directory name, you could use, for example, your C:\Windows or C:\Program Files folder, which will automatically solve any annoying with the UAC
