Recently I grab a folder from school's Unix machine. For some strange reason, when I was grabbing the folder using a FTP software, the folder is recursively nested. Now I can't delete the folder anymore.
I tried using dos' command "deltree ", but it didn't work.
Could anyone help me on this one. I appreciate the help, thanks!

Is the file on your local drive? Just go into a DOS prompt and delete from there.
