Undeletable folder

[hazuki]

I had an archive file created by Backup MyPC I wanted to
extract from. Moved it to the desktop and extracted the
files to a folder I created on the desktop,
named "restore". After moving the files out of the folder
I tried to delete it but kept getting, Cannot remove
folder System Volume Information:access is denied. I am
completely stump. Anyone have an idea. Thanks Hazuki

That is a system folder used by the system restore feature of Windows-- it
stores files there in case you want to revert system settings back to a
previous time, to fix a problem.

If you really want to delete it, disable System Restore ...

The one I gave was for Windows ME.
