Somehow I have a folder called "http:" on my computer, I can't delete or access or rename it. When I try to delete I get the message "The file name you specified is not valid or too long, specify a different file name".

I can't seem to do anything with that directory.

I have win 7 64 bit, I'm just trying to delete it normally.

Also, I checked properties > security, and it says the info is either unavailable or can't be displayed.

  • What Operating system? How are you attempting to delete it? – Davidw Jul 26 '13 at 03:58

    Did you try `rd http*`? – Ƭᴇcʜιᴇ007 Jul 26 '13 at 04:21
