Guest Chris Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 I stumbled across a solution! You will need to take ownership of the folder and subfolders/files. You will then be able to delete the folder as normal. If it tells you that you need special permissions, push the "yes" button. For some reason if you give yourself delete permissions through any other means, the computer will "forget" that you have permission. This worked on my DELL OEM version of Windows XP SP2. I logged in as the specaial account called "Administrator" Hope that helped!

Guest Barker Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 Hey, Dale and others, Just found this fix on another site. Fast, easy and it actually worked. No BS: From Brian Egan on www.question-defense.com August 9th, 2009 at 1:13 pm (1) Right mouse click on the folder containing filterpipelineprintproc.dll (e.g. Folder: ed798b66cbeb3a7b9bde9e55a9e2) and choose Properties (2) Go to the Security tab (3) Select the"Full Control" button under Allow (4) Delete the folder Cheers, ~JKB "Dale" wrote: > Sorry Harry but you can waste your time and money - I wouldn't be in this > place posting for answers to questions otherwise. > > Your attitude about what constitutes important versus trivial is exactly why > the name Microsoft is synonymous with lackadaisical & lackadaisical almost > security and almost reliability.

Guest PA Bear [MS-MVP] Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 Leftover files after .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 installation http://www.verboon.info:80/index.php/2009/...1-installation/ Also see Known Issue #1 in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/951847/en-us (Last Review: July 17, 2009) -- ~PA Bear, MS MVP www.banthecheck.com
Guest Mark Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 Here is the solution. Right click on that main folder with the long name ..... click sharing and security ... check share this folder on the network box ..... give it a name .... apply. Now you can delete the folder and everything in it.
Guest mptigert Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 You are the man, simplicity never hurt anybody. This totally worked. everything else was just a bunch of comp jargon that i didn't understand. It's sad it took this many posts just to get the right one ha. But pat yourself on the back you made the most sense. Thanks again \tony/ "Mark" wrote: > Here is the solution.

Guest Marc Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 I am running Windows XP/SP2 and was able to delete the rouge folder this way: 1. Disable simple file sharing a. In the Control Panel, Select Folder Options, then select the View Tab b. Scroll down to the end and uncheck the box next to "Use simple file sharing (Recommended)" c. Click Apply, OK, and exit Control Panel. 2. Change permissions of rouge folder a. Navigate to the ed798b66cbeb3a7b9bde9e55a9e2 folder left behind from the .NET framework update b. Right click the folder, select Permissions, then select the Security tab c. Under the "Allow" column, click the first box for "Full Control". All the boxes (or at least most of them) will automatically get checked. d. Click Apply then OK. 3. Drag rouge folder to the Recycle Bin. This should delete without a problem. I told this solution to a friend and he had to go into the rouge folder and perform step #2 for both the folders present for some reason, but the end result was the same. The offending folder got deleted. Hope this works for you.

The catch to this, I think, is that you have to turn on network sharing first in order to do it, thereby lowering your overall security ... particularly if you don't know how to set it up properly.

Guest David Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 I also had the same problem and was able to delete the folder by editing the permissions, giving my admin account full access and removing all other roles.

Guest Micha Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 Johnny, when I zip a folder, it creates the zipped folder in addition to the original. So the original remains unzipped and unable to be deleted. Marc, I don't have an option for "Use simple file sharing (Recommended)" and I am using XP SP2 as well... So I still have no idea how to remove this stubborn folder!!!
Guest janwm Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 There is another way which I found on the net and which is, I guess, quite simple. Just drop and drag these files (or whole subfolders) from the Explorer into SDSpybot's Secure Shredder (Advanced Mode - Tools) and remove them. After that you can delete the leftover folder.
Guest Donald Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Yes, this solution works well. Thanks Marc.

Guest mrspar Posted August 20, 2009 Posted August 20, 2009 SDSpybot's Secure Shredder worked like a charm--thank you.

Guest stulpa Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 You can install cygwin, which is a linux shell emulator for windows... I deleted the folder and files by changing the permissions from a cygwin shell.

This stupid file was dumped on my external hard drive and it bugged me to see it there. Harmless or not, I DONT WANT IT! And thankfully this simple method worked for me. Thank you

Guest Steve Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Even simpler way to delete it is to create a new folder and drag the offending 'ed798b66cbeb3a7b9bde9e55a9e2' folder into it. Thus any permissions that it is inheriting will be now be parented by the folder you created (so you will have read/write permissions on it) then just delete the new folder.

Guest Lyngengr Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 There is an easy way to delete this directory. You must be logged in as an administrator to do this. Select the folder with a right-mouse click, and then select the properties menu item (last one in the list). Click on the Security tab (third one), select the Administrators group/user name, and then in the permissions box click on "Full Control". Select the Apply button and exit. Then you can delete the entire "ed798b66cbeb3a7b9bde9e55a9e2" directory and subfolders/files.
