Windows 10 - cannot delete folder

I accidently installed a program into the wrong folder. It is now installed in Program instead of somewhere else (mind the tailing space). However, now I am unable to delete said folder because Windows does not like tailing spaces. PowerShell doesn’t seem to recognise it…

Any ideas?

[edit, too late to the party] Did you put the name/ full path in quotes in powershell?

A couple of reboots and total commander did the trick :slight_smile:

@Trooper_ish I did, powershell didn’t care

Nice. Today I learnt Windows will create folders with trailing spaces, and that will totally mess me up if I do it. Thanks in advance from future me!

And today I’ve learned that it is called tRailing space, not tailing space even though the thing that sticks out of my dogs butt is called tail and not trail :smiley:

well, it doesn’t leave a tail of mess on the floor behind it when it has too much veg(or the runs)?
