I had in effect tried this, but did so specifically when I got your post. Still
won't delete. Get Error Message:
TITLE: "Error Deleting File or Folder"
MSG: "Cannot Remove Folder STUPID: The directory name is invalid."
** In my frustration, and testing, I've gotten the folder renamed to "STUPID", cause
that's what it is. :)
My best guess is that there are illegal characters in the folders name at the end
that do not show up, which would explain why I can move it around on the same drive,
'cause its just updating the root path of the folder and not attempting to change
or delete the folder itself.
