Users is a system protected folder so you may not have access. Try installing "Take Ownership" and take over the permissions on the file. If it still won't delete then install Unlocker, then right-click on the file and set it to delete on reboot.

Links to "Take Ownership" and "Unlocker" are available in our Freeware DB

Takeownership I have added to my context menu. It's not really a program though, and if it is, it's just a program that makes a registry edit which sends parameters to the takeown.exe in your System32 folder. Command line for taking ownership of a file is:

Code:
takeown /f "filepath\filepath\file.ext"
As an example.

But you can view it's syntax with:

Code:
takeown /?
Are these video folders in your Video folder in your %UserProfile% location or are they directly in your %UserProfile% windows directory?
