    Default Can't delete a file..

    I'm trying to play the game Upshift Strike Racer. I keep getting an error. People say this can be fixed by reinstalling. But by uninstalling from Control Panel, some files still remain.

    I have tried just going ahead and installing, but these files can't be over written. So that becomes a problem while patching. I just ignored it, and still the same error.

    I want to completely delete the folders so that I can download from another mirror and try, but the gPotato folder is marked as Read-Only. It won't let me remove this, it says access denied.

    Yes, I am administrator.

    So, how would I go about deleting this folder?

    It's usually a bug. Just restart if you haven't yet. It always works for me.

    That's why a reboot every once in a while is necessary. ._.

    I can tell about the amazing amount of errors I got without rebooting for 21 days straight and instantly solving it with a reboot.

    I should update this but all my effort went into writing this lousy excuse.
