Being a Windows user, you might have sometimes tried to delete a file but couldn’t do it. You might have noticed an error message on your screen saying “Access Denied” or “You don’t currently have permission to access this folder.” Even if you log into your computer as an administrator, you encounter the same error message. It indicates that the file or folder you are trying to delete is either corrupt or used by some other program.
