I install some software into C: drive. Now I don't want use them any more. I did uninstall those software from control panel. In C:, under programs, those software folders and files still there. I tried many times to delete those folders and files, but Win Vista never allow to do it. Those software name still listing under -- Start -- programs. I also can not delete those name from listing. In Win XP delete those software folders, files and name listing is very easy way. Why Win Vista can not do it ? How to delete folder and files under Win vista ?

What were the programs you were uninstalling? Is UAC enabled (default)? Is the user account you're using a full administrator on the box? When you say "it won't let you", does an error come up? What exactly happens? "Enough, enough bowing down to disillusion! Hats off & applause to rogues & evolution! The ripple effect is too good not to mention. If you’re not affected, you’re not paying attention!"
