I've installed Adobe photodeluxe home edition 4.0. When I installed it, it added a folder for a digital camera..... it is named "my digital camera". I would like to delete it but when you right click on it, all it will let you do is explore, open, or create shortcut. I am using Windows 98. When you open explorer and look under my computer it is the same type of folder as printers, control panel, dial up networking, scheduled tasks. Can anyone help. Thank you for your time and have a very nice day.

If the "folder" is in the Control Panel then it is a Control Panel applet. Such applets are stored in the Windows/System folder with an extention of ".cpl". There is no telling what the name will be, but you might try all the ones begining with an "m". Just double click the file and it should bring up the program just as if you double clicked on it in the Control Panel. Once you have found the corrcet applet you can either delete it or move it to another folder. Once it is out of the Windows/System folder the icon will not show up in the Control Panel.

Go to Start/Run, type in regedit and hit
OK.
Expand the tree as follows:You will find this key at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Software\Micrsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer under namespace you will find the folder name.
Export the key and then delete it from the registry.
