re: Cannot delete a folder structure in XP Friday, August 24, 2007 at 10:32 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Steve (2 messages posted) Yeehaw, finally got rid of the RAD folder structure from hell. Fortunately, the project folders were only nested to about 44 levels deep. So started renaming each parent project folder to 'x' in order to shorten the overall path length to the bottom folder (and deleted .metadata folders on the way down as well). Once they were all named 'x' then the deepest folder's path name was short enough to allow it to be deleted. Going to bed now.
