I hope I'm not in the wrong place to ask this question.
If so, sorry. I'm trying to delete a folder in Windows,
but everytime I try to delete it I get an error message
that says "Error Deleting File or Folder. Make sure the
disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is
not currently in use" Several weeks ago I got a pop up
for Internet Washer Pro and I must have clicked the
install button and it partially installed it. Now I want
to delete the file and can't because of this error
message. Can anyone tell me how to delete it?

Both are freeware programs that can probably delete that directory
