Hello ,

I created a folder on a USB stick and accidentally moved a file to the System Volume folder. I can't delete the folder or the file! Can someone please help me with how to delete the System Volume folder?
Thank you

You need to change the permissions of the folder by:

  1. Right-click on the folder –> Properties
  2. Click on Security, then click on “Advanced” below
  3. Change the owner of the folder to your user (with the change button)
  4. Add full access rights to your account

Then you should be able to praise the file.

Then try the following:
Start cmd as admin

Enter the following:

G: cd takeown /r /f “System Volume Information”

G should be the letter of your USB stick.

Then “y” if asked.

Then enter:

del "G:\System Volume Information\Pfad_zur_Datei"

The path to the file should obviously be the path to the file.

Keep the place where the file is stored

e.g.: G:\System Volume Information\ sample.txt

Like chromakopia, he should be erasable.

But why do you want to put him back? Try to copy it back and leave it in the system folder where it doesn’t bother, it’s not addressed by anything.

Have a friend visit who knows how to delete it, but has no hurry

Try it like this:

Start Windows in Safe Mode. After that, delete normally. In most cases it works.
