Question I cannot get PC to boot, or enter Safe Mode ?

Is the file or folder read-only?

Use "/ar" to specify files with a read-only attribute.

If you want to del all files at your current directory, type ...

del *.*

This is dangerous, so be sure that this is what you really want to do. Type DIR beforehand to see the files that will be deleted.

Is the file or folder read-only?

I typed:

dir /ar

The Radeon folder did not populate. The Radeon folder is 63.9 GB and that's what I want to delete, that's where I'm stuck.

The ATTRIB command can display a file's attributes.

This is just a sample of commands. Choose whichever are appropriate.

cd "radeon_folder"
attrib /?
attrib
dir *.*
dir *.* /ar
del *.* /p
del *.* /ar /p

Ok, I'll mess with that.

Going back, I was able to list the users. I crossed out mine, but saw two that were decimals...kinda odd.

I also think my comment of the video file being 63.9 GB was incorrect, as this shows the same avail space, but did not read that way before.

Another option right now is to clone my drive to a larger drive to see what happens.

The problem drive is a 980 Pro M.2 1TB. I have a spare Crucial 2TB M.2 and a new 990 Pro 2TB M.2 I plan to use. Perhaps I can clone to the Crucial just to see if it works, then clone again to the 990. Just a thought.

I have one M.2 enclosure but 2 more slots on my MB.
