I imported some files to a folder to see a video on Realtec. Now I can't delete the files or folder. It is a "read only" file. Don't know how it happened but it's there. Can anyone help? Thanks.
 
The form-letter answer is to re-start your machine in safe mode and delete them.

When that doesn't work, people come back and say "That didn't work" and I give more profound advice that works. It goes this way because most of the time deleting while in safe mode does work.
