Win 2000 - Problem deleting folder

[andrea kampa]

Hi all,
I'm a Win2000 professional user - sP 4. I can't delete some folders in
e:\inetpub\wwwroot\...\.
I've created them by FrontPage2000 SR1. I enter Windows as Administrator,
then I should be able to
create /delete all objects. On the contrary, each time I attempt to erase
the assigned folder Windows
warns me so:
"Access is denied. The source file may be in use."

Thanks in advance.

check the security setting and make sure admin is on it.
If not, add it. If that does not work, use task manage to
kill every process you can. Including explorer. Start a
new process, "cmd". navigate to the folder and use rd /s
foldername (this is the old dos deltree functionality)

Try deleting it while in safe mode and see KB link below for more
information. --- Steve

Actually admin rights are not well set. Now the prob is over.
Thanks a lot
