Sometimes you need to remove a folder, but the delete button in Windows does not work, so you need to use MS-DOS also called the Command prompt to delete a folder.
All you have to do is browse to your drive then the folder your file is located in by doing a series of CD and DIR commands. You start CMD by going to Start> Run and typing CMD, and pressing enter.
When you found the directory you want to delete. You type RD FolderName /s press enter
and type Y then press enter.

Windows has a program called Microsoft Management Console (MMC) which is a tool you can use to easily access all your most common administrative programs you use like Services.msc, Event viewer, performance monitor, device manager, Windows Firewall, Computer Management, Disk Management, Shared Folders, and more program. This can save you time by not having to look up how to access all these programs. All you have to do is open your custom console with a .msc extension to access all the programs you normally use to maintain and administrate Windows.
