I created a new folder on the C Drive. I created a compressed folder within
that new folder. I changed my mind about the folders, and deleted the
compressed folder. I also wanted to delete the new folder on the C Drive,
but it cannot be deleted. I got an error message telling me that the folder
is in use. When I right-clicked the folder, the properties box showed that
the folder is a read-only folder. How did the folder become a read-only
folder? How can I delete this folder? Please advise.
 
Try rebooting and see if you can delete it. All folders in XP are read
only.
