Kimsan,
This is a rough description. In your My Documents folder, in the Tree
View, find the highest-level folder you would like to delete. Now press
right-arrow. Now tab over to the list view, and look at what you've got.
Select and delete, as appropriate. There may be some files that won't
delete, so maybe here's a chance to find out their names. You may have
made some read-only. if so, you'll have to make them read-only not
checked, a checkbox in the alt-enter general or the other tab control
property sheet. Hopefully, by the end there will be nothing in the
folder you right-arrowed into. Then you can shift+tab and left-arrow,
and delete it.
Another alternative? Cut the whole thing to the clipboard. leave it
there, and reboot.
Another alternative, find something like ReVo Uninstaller, or some other
professional file deletion utility.

I failed to mention in my original email that the folder I have is in
my
documents folder. I tried deleting the sub folders first and when I
hit
delete or shift delete, it says preparing to delete cancel button and
it has
been 15 minutes and it still says that.

Do the tree things and delete all the info in the last folder first
and than
the folder, if it won't let you delete the master folder. For many
times the
folder can't be deleted before it is emptied of files and sub folders.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] deleting a folder
Hi,
I'm gunna ask this here cuzz I am not getting answers from google or
any other list.
I have a folder that has folders within the folder and I am wanting
to
remove the entire thing.
However, when I press delete it says recycling dialog cancel button
and when routing jaws to PC and read current line it says discovering
items.
I have waited at least twenty minutes to see if this folder will
delete but it doesn't. Why does it say recycling dialog and
discovering items. WDoes anyone have the slightest idea why this
folder isn't deleting? Its just a random folder I created with a
bunch
of notes in them.
Thank you.
