Ok, I'm trying to test a mod, so I figured I would remove my dstech folder, to make it load faster, but something stupid is happening. the dstech folder keeps going read-only, and whenever I uncheck it, then it goes right back to read-only as soon as I close tohe properties window. Anyone have any idea whatsoever how to fix this?
edit: also, it keeps saying it is being used by another program, but I don't have anything open except the folder it's in, wtf.

If you have the folder open while you are trying to delete it, YOU ARE USING THE FOLDER.

It's like opening a book, and while reading the page, you try to close the book, with the intent of still reading that page. You can't do it. Close the folder, then remove it.

I fixed it, and no, I didn't have the folder I was trying to delete open, I had the folder it was in open. My browser is acting up, or I would have posted it before you replied.

Kill all zombie instances of CC from task manager. Also move CC out of program files.

I fixed it, and CC wasn't running, and I keep it on my desktop. I just needed to reboot my comp, and then it deleted fine.

This fixes pretty much everything, ever. Have a stuck file? Reboot your comp. Admin privileges not working for some reason? Reboot your comp. Mouse pointer has turned into a small demon bent on killing all your icons? Reboot your comp.

Make your life easier, use Unlocker. Seriously, use it.
I'm 100% serious, use it. It works, plus it's free.
