Hello! Can someone help me with deleting all the files from the \Cygwin directory? I was able to delete about 99% of the files in the directories, but some files stated that they cannot be deleted because "Access is Denied. Make sure the disk is not full or write protected." I tried everything from 'Safe Mode' to deleting with Cmd. All of these files are Shortcuts to some other files. Ex. d:\cygwin\etc\hosts cannot be deleted. I even tried cutting them into the recycle bin. I am also sure that the shortcuts are not used by any programs or services. Any help would be appreciated!!!

Have you tried change or looking at the permissions on the shortcuts?
