What should I do if I can t delete something from my notebook?

If it's a user file, you can use 360 to force the deletion.

Workaround for software or files that can't be deleted:

The first method is to press F8 to delete it in safe mode when you boot up.

The second method is to open the task manager and end the process "explorer", at which point the desktop icon and taskbar are gone.

Open the Task Manager (press "Ctrl+Alt+Del" to open it), click "File" "New Task", enter "Explorer" in the "Create New Task" dialog box that opens, click the "OK" button, and wait a while to see the desktop icon.

At this point, select the file you want to delete and delete it.

Open PC Manager and select Toolbox in the lower-right corner.

After opening "File Shredding", we will see that there is a "Add File" and "Add Directory", here we select "Add File".

Find the file or directory we want to delete and click Open.

Once opened, we'll see that the file we want to delete has been added. Click "Smash" in the lower right corner to finish.

Restart the computer into safe mode, at this time no extra program plug-ins will be loaded, and all files can be deleted.

If it still doesn't work, then go to PE to delete.

If you see something on your computer screen that can't be deleted, try the following:

1.Restart your computer. Sometimes, some issues in your computer can be resolved by simply restarting it.

2.Check whether you have administrator privileges. If you don't have administrator privileges, you may not be able to delete some files or programs. Please log in with an administrator account and try again.

3.Close the program. Make sure that the file or program you want to delete is not being run or occupied by another program.

Open Task Manager (press Ctrl+Alt+del), end all related programs from the currently running application and background process, and try to delete them again.

4.Check file or directory permissions. Make sure you have sufficient permissions to delete this file or directory. Right-click on the file or directory and select"attributes", and then select the Security tab.

5.Delete in safe mode. Sometimes, operating in Windows Safe Mode is able to bypass certain access restrictions to make it easier to delete files.

On Windows 10, you can hold down the Shift key and select "Restart", then select "Troubleshooting" >Advanced Options> Startup Settings" >Startup" > selection"Safe mode"or"Safe mode (with networking)."。Then enter safe mode and try to delete again.

6.Use a command prompt or powershell. You can try typing"del + filename"(For example.)"del c:

Filename. exe"Then run the command as an administrator in the command prompt or powershell.

If none of the above methods work, you may want to further consider using a third-party tool to delete the files. Please note that you should be careful when choosing and choosing third-party tools and choosing them from trusted ones.

Hello Kiss is happy to answer this question for you. 1. First of all, try to use antivirus software such as Kingsoft Antivirus to check and kill viruses, if there is a virus, the running virus will be removed, and the files in the folder will not continue to be occupied, and the deletion can be completed. 2. Use the system's built-in task manager to see if there is a program running in the folder, and if you find it, end the run directly, and then try to delete it.

3. Try to use a program such as a file shredder, try to smash, generally 360, Jinshan and other security software, all have this kind of function, which can be found in the options such as treasure chests. However, it should be noted that if the folder storage capacity is relatively large, it is not recommended to use it, because it will be more time-consuming. You can also use these tools to check for malicious plug-ins or something.

4. For the setting of folder access permissions, it will also lead to non-deletion, which is easy to ignore. So you need to see if the current user doesn't have full control of the folder. You need to right-click on the folder icon, select Security in the pop-up menu, and then add the current user or everyone user as full control, and then delete it again.

5. You can try unlocker and you can find it at once. After installation, right-click on the icon of the destination folder and select Unlock and Delete. 6. You can enter the safe mode or delete it in PE.
