I am not 100% sure I understand the question correctly, because you English is indeed a bit hard to read. It would really be helpful to know what error you are getting when you try to open the folder or delete the files.

You could try taking ownership of the folder. Either try this article https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753659(v=ws.11).aspx or try downloading the TakeOwnership tool.

Also this site might help you deleting undeleteable files
