Can’t Delete Folder “You have been denied permission” Fix for Windows

I recently discovered a folder named Qoobox on the C drive of my Microsoft Windows computer.

It looked a bit suspicious.

So I could remove it, but when I tried, it would not delete.

It threw an error that said You have been denied permission to access this folder.

Heres how to get past this message and delete the folder.

In my case, the BackEnv folder within the Qoobox folder had permissions that denied access to every user.

This permission had to be removed with these steps.

Now attempt to delete the folder.

Windows should now allow you to remove it without error.
