    how do I delete user/appdata folder

    Hi,

    I deleted a user and the users folder is still available with a lot of
    data stored in the hidden user/appdata folder and subdirectories. I
    can't delete it because of permissions, I think.

    Maybe I should back up a bit. Is it ok to delete this folder? It's a
    completely removed user.

    Thanks,

    Tanner

    Examine permissions for that folder. You can remove them all if you have
    administrative privileges. You have to also remove inheritance if it is
    going to hold you back. It is doable. After that it will be sailing.
