Can't delete a folder that's stuck on my desktop

[Thierry_3]

Hello Everyone,

So It's been a while since I've downloaded a folder and i can either move it or delete it

its just sitting on my desktop like a virus or something, when i try to delete it a pop up comes on and says " Could not find this item it is no longer location in C:\users........\Desktop. "

but i can see the folder is still here but i can't delete it can anybody help me ??

cause its really starting to p*** me off.

Thanks ♥

What is name of folder?

I assume you have done a restart?

this might help: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-files/error-could-not-find-this-item-this-is-no-longer/70969fd0-4afe-43f5-a50e-c1e59ac227d0

This might help also but I am concerned about taking ownership of anything in c/users: https://www.infopackets.com/news/10050/how-fix-cant-delete-file-folder-system-cannot-find-file-specified
