Deleting too long folders that have strings which wont delete

[rsnowicki]

I unknowingly created a folder with more folder strings which I can't delete the usual ways. How can I delete these?

You can delete it in a command prompt using the short, or DOS compatible, name. You can view the short names by using "dir /X", then use "del foldername".
