I have 50 folders all have identical contents but all have different alpha numeric names for the folder name. Example: 2189bc0661d90762628f or 2502c101d5b3a65d510e678fdcad.


When I try to open them as the Administrator it says "You don't currently have permission to access this Folder" "Click Continue to permanently get access to this folder."


I click continue the folder opens, has the same Visual Studio update files in it as the other folders. These folders can not be deleted, not even in safe mode.


I right click on the folder select delete and it says:

Folder Access Denied

You'll need to provide administrator permission to delete this folder


I click continue with the admin Icon Shield on it. It then says you require permission from SYSTEM to make changes to this folder.


What can I do they are 11.6mb each. I would like them gone.
