I know this isn't Helpdesk or whatever but surely there is something I'm doing wrong right?
Tried to update a steam game, said the game couldn't update because a folder in C:\ProgramFiles(x86)\Steam\steamapps\downloading\507 was missing
Ok, just delete the folder and try again
Access Denied you need permission from >LAPTOPMODEL\ANON
open Command Prompt: whoami
>LAPTOPMODEL\ANON
>niggerwhat.mp4
>ok, go to properties in folder change permissions under Securtiy/advanced
set LAPTOPMODEL\ANON as owner to this file and all sub-files with rwx/full control protocols.
Make sure all processes of steam are kill.
guess who I still need permission from
>LAPTOPMODEL\ANON
open CMD again
>rmdir /q/s
>access denied
>every fucking folder
try to re-install steam
>can't do it because location needs to be empty
Gonna fucking snap my laptop in half could anyone help with this please?

actually a "dumb" solution would be to boot into a linux live cd or usb and delete the files from there. linux is unaffected by windows permissions.

I've got a copy of Tinycore on my PC, just access the partition and delete it, would that work?
