I don't know how this happened but I have a folder on my D: drive which I cannot delete. The error message is something like this (translated from German):
Element not found
The Element is no longer in D:\Downloads\
Check the Elements location and repeat the process
The folder's name is Yuki
(there is a space behind the i) I don't know how the space got there but it seems to be there.
The folder is empty (no hidden elements)
I cannot delete the folder, however I can create a folder inside the folder if I right-click > new
I have only one option available which is folder (labeled with an admin-icon (I guess its called that, the blue/yellow shield)
If, for example, I create the folder test
in Yuki
I am able to delete the folder test
and I am able to create everything I normally can folder, text-doc and so on (in the folder test
)
I already tried to:
- Remove the folder normally
right click > delete
(triggers above error) - Remove the folder with Cmd (System cannot find the file specified)
- Remove the folder with "Everything" (nothing happens)
- Remove the folder with Cmd in safe-boot (System cannot find the file specified)
Now I am out of ideas and hope anyone here could help me (I am sorry if my English is unintelligible I will try to clarify everything that comes up.
Edit1:
I forgot to mention: Yes I tried renaming the folder first I tried to just get rid of the space and got this error message
the source and destination file names are the same
If I try to rename it like Yukirename
or even Yuki rename
I get the same error message when trying to delete the file.
