kekalot Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 if it's set to read only then just copy the files to another folder. if it's a Steam game you can right click, properties, click local files tab, move install folder. not sure what you are trying to do. when i click stuff in Program Files (x86) and want to delete it asks me to confirm I want to do as admin and that's it.

Matzzon Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Your system has been installed by a person that knows nothing. Just save the files you need, if any. After do a new installation or go to a trusted shop. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OS prevents users (or their scummy programs) from modifying critical system or program files to prevent integrity/corruption issues during runtime. This restriction isn't in place for other locations. Just temporarily copy/move the file, edit, move back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP should be able to google something similar for any other Windows version. And in terms of user-rights I don't remember too many changes over the last Windows versions since Windows NT.
