I have a folder called Projects then a folder called projects.. which when clicked directly links the user to the Projects folder. The projects.. folder acts like a shortcut to the projects folder and is 0 kb so it appears to be a link of some kind. When I attempt to delete the projects.. I get an error message:
"An unexpected error is keeping you from deleting the folder. Error 0x80070091: The directory is not empty"

I ran a disk analysis thinking something was wrong with the HDD, but no errors were found.

Next, I decided to go into CMD with admin privileges.
Following Commands Tried:
del projects..
"F:\projects..\*, Are you sure (Y, N)? Y
Next nothing changes the projects.. is still in the directory.

rmdir /q /s projects..
"The directory is not empty"


So I decide to backup my Projects folder and I proceeded to delete the Projects folder which would empty the projects.. folder.

When I atempt to delete project.. I get a message "This is no longer located in F:\. Verify the item's location and try again."

So I go back into CMD and retry the prevous steps.
del projects..
"Could Not Find F:\projects..

rmdir /q /s projects..
"The system cannot find the file specified."


Any idea on how to go about fixing the issue?
