Deleting Unwanted Folders

[Guest]

I want to get rid of several folders on my new eMachines computer, but WinXP won't let go! Folders such as 'Xerox', 'NetMeeting', 'MSN Gaming Zone', etc.

I've tried starting up in safe mode and deleting them that way, but the only changes are that the folder titles begin with a small letter instead of a capital, and the folders and subfolders appear to be empty. If they're empty why won't they go away?

I don't want them either. But they are protected system folders
and can't be deleted. Without disabling Windows File Protection
you could make a career out of trying to delete these folders. ;-)

.........and never suceed.
