The access/security on a folder was being reset after
installation and by mistake the Owner/Creator account was
deleted, and along with that, everything else. Now the
folder is visible but not accessible. We need to delete
it totally so the software can be reinstalled, but nothing
seems to be working. Help.
Thank you.
