Can not delete file: access denied



Issue

I have recently installed Quicktime and since then I've got the "hello" folder containing "mdnsDSP.dll and mdnsresponder" files , settle in my Program Files. 

When I try to delete this folder, it prompts me with the following error message:"Access Denied". 

Solution

The problem may be due to some administrative rights .
  • Open Explorer.
  • Tools.
  • Folder Options ...
  • View Tab.
  • Down in the list uncheck "Use simple file sharing (recommended)".
  • Right click on the folder or file for which you do not have access, "Properties".
    • Security tab.
    • Advanced Settings.
    • "Owner" tab..
    • Select User.
    • Check the following option: "Replace owner on sub containers and objects".
    • Click on "Apply".


Try to delete the file again!
