> My folder has become unreadable after a rar failed to archive

Ok, i was rarring this file and it locked up. So I went to task manager and
ended the process. Ever since, the folder that I was rarring the file to has
become really weird. Everytime I try to open this specific folder the window
freezes up. After about 5 minutes my files that I have in the folder will
appear in the window, but if I try to access anything in it, the window
freezes up again.

This is very weird as every other folder and file on my PC is 100% fine,
it's only the folder that I was rarring a file to. Any ideas on how to fix
this and get my files back from that folder?

delete them...Know any quick way because the folder is lagged to hell

Ctrl/A selects All. The delete while depressing the Shift key. This
will bypass the Recycle Bin, but will also make it impossible to get any
of the files back, so be careful where you do this.

Go into Safe Mode Command Prompt and delete them from the command line.
