Thank-you very much. Was trying all sorts of ways to delete my "old.windows" folder from C:\ and couldn't do it for the life of me. 4 clicks after opening your tool I was done and it was gone without a trace left behind. First thing that worked out of pages and pages of Google searching. Windows 10 Home upgraded from win 7 to win 8.1 to win 10.

After many attempts of other suggestions of software at removing a file that was supposed not to exist but refused to be deleted, like s*** on a bedsheet, this worked no problemo! (Windows 7 - 64 Bit) Well done code writer! :)

Im using Windows 8, unfortunately it doesnt work for me when i try to use it, it says it needs a windows feature to be installed. Normally that's not a problem except it doesnt tell me what needs to be installed so im stuck at being unable to do anything as i cant install what i dont know needs to be installed

i tried installing the latest versiopn 3.0 on 17th may 2017 on a windoes 7 PC. Fails installation with error below C:\Windows\System32\FilExileExt.dll Unable to register the DLL/OCX: RegSvr32 failed with exit code 0x3. Click Retry to try again, Ignore to proceed anyway (not recommended), or Abort to cancel installation. i ignored the error and continued. it did not work either for removing the stubborn files from my iomega ix2 NAS Drive. tried portable editions ..they also did not delete the bad files. Tried version 2.0 No Error and gives a message successfully deleted but files still exists on the NAS. Not sure but this is buggy with deleting remote files and may be able to delete local files properly.
