as per the title, the folder in question is a folder in a mod for skyrim i downloaded, and, after installing the mod, and everything i got a few errors, so i decided to delete it.

I'm not sure what are the english terms, as i use win10 in italian.
aaand, i couldn't. it asks me to give admin permit to delete it, and then it said "can't delete, need permission from "4K...../Francesco" which is my (and the only) account on the computer.

so i tried to check on properties, security, and it says "you need reading rights to see who has admin rights"
which... is wierd, since i'm the only guy using the computer, and i could access the files an hour before.
checking the internet i found two solutions: fileAssassin, a program that should work around the admin limitations, but i couldn't select the folders.
and "take ownership" add-on, that adds a command in my right click panel... whhiiiiich didn't do anything.

thanks in advance.

Hi, open msconfig.exe and on the Boot tab, check the box that says Safe boot. Reboot and while in Safe Mode, try to delete the folder. Then, while in Safe Mode, go back into msconfig.exe and uncheck the Safe boot box. Reboot to return to normal.
