I gave all of the types of permissions possible to my user, all of which except "Special Premissions". I did this through both the single folder i wanted to delete (right clicking the folder itself), and through right clicking C: as well. I adjusted all of the security options according to how i wanted them (all options possible), and even with "full control", I still could not do something as simple as delete a folder off of my desktop. I attempted to give "Special Permission" control to my user by clicking advanced once in the security tabs. It seemed as though i was doing everything right, but the results of my efforts pointed to the contrary. I failed miserably *laughs*. In all seriousness, I am pretty decent with computers and i do believe i did everything right with regards to giving my user full control and "Special Permissions". So I think i may have to turn the hole UAC thingy off, delete the folder, then turn it back on. However, If you know something else i could do with the UAC still on, I would really appreciate the help. Also, if you could also show me how to turn the UAC off (if you don't come up with a solution to the problem) I would also appreciate that.
Once again, Thanks for your time.
