Didn't worked in my situation.
Was also literally the first thing I've said I've tried in the very first post (as it usually did the trick before) xD
But "winrar trick" sounds too vague I guess, so my bad.
I'm honestly surprised that consider how this issue seem to pretty much an ancient one (though not that common I'll admit),
It's still hard to solve with an internet search, solely due to how most people will give the solution for removing a file or empty folder at best, over a folder that is...
I was actually in the middle of posting a pic of the DIR X so you can see it was the same name or tell me if there was some potentially extra spaces there near the end or something, but then I've seen antspants comment and it worked so I've stopped the post there
Umm so the S is matter when you...
Sadly it didn't worked, it printed
"The directory is not empty." again (as I've mentioned above ;/)
Buttt
Holy... that works, thanks a lot! (I've noriced the two dots btw but thought it was on purpose)
I've seen some people mentioning there that Powershell can bypass that but I had no idea...
Copy that into windows power shell as an admin and press enter right?
it didn't worked
Going to the folder, and then using dir /x
showed the same folder name as what I've copied pasted,
Using rmdir "\\?\F:\Program Files\Downloads\Folder Name." posted me
"The directory is not empty."
Umm I will give these a try after trying these commands,
I rather not mess with apps Idk if there's something that can remove the file directly, consider that force deleter or my rename app didn't worked,
How can I use the PowerRun to remove the file actually?
They said there that PowerShell...
I've tried to create the same folder and remove it,
It didn't worked, unless I didn't got you right
Only that said commend from the site seem to do the trick from what they said
It's sort of like the example I've posted above before seeing your comment right?
Will this work??
rmdir "\\?\F:\Program Files\Downloads\Folder Name"
The path is
F:\Program Files\Downloads\FolderWithDot
Idk how to "convert" it into that CMD command you showed
It's another download folder I'm using on a different drive,
It's not on C so Program Files doesn't really got any Windows security to it like C does
What is the whole part with the
del "\\?\c:\path_to_file_that contains a trailing space.txt "
From the post here btw?
Can I just write
del...
As the title said, I have some folder that I've downloaded and renamed before the download start, and I've forgot the "." at the end and now I've got Unspecified error 0x80004005 whenever I'm trying to remove it,
I've tried to redownload the folder but then it won't override it but rather just...
All of these upgrade suggestions are good and all but you're missing my point,
My OS is working; I've only encountered an issue with some stuff that mostly relates to some broken apps I had to repair/reset/reinstall,
Among these, I've noticed some potentially strange behavior of the...
I've updated to the 24H2 on feb 14 by chance,
After the update I had to fix some stuff manually as this update seem to be treated like an upgrade.
For the most part I've managed to make everything in working condition again and didn't encountered some issues people talked about online so far...
