Annoying PC problem

[webfreak08]

I have a very annoying PC problem. I've been trying to delete folders from when I used to do PHP script installations. I've successfully deleted all but one.

When I try to delete this folder, I get the following error message.

Cannot delete Commands: The file name you specified is not valid or too long.
Specify a different file name.

The files in this folder have names like

CreateFolder.php
DeleteFile.php
DeleteFolder.php
RenameFolder.php

I cannot right-click these files and rename them.

Any thoughts?

Thanks. :help::crash::help:

Try deleting the content of the folder before deleting the folder itself.
When you delete the content, if it doesn't work, restart PC and try again.

I do not guarantee a solution, but I had that once and deleting content/restarting worked for me.

I've actually had to do this for some of the other folders that I deleted.

Unfortunately, for this situation, no luck.

Worst case scenario you could delete them via the command prompt in safe mode..

I tried getting into Safe Mode, but received an IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error message.

:crash:

UPDATE: I think I fixed it. I moved the entire folder to the Shared Documents folder and then deleted it in there. For some reason, it didn't give me any error this time. Thanks for your help.
