I'm trying to delete a folder on my computer (C:Program FilesGoogle) using admin rights, but I keep getting an error that says I need permission from Administrators to make changes. I'm using the standard admin account but can't figure out how to get around this issue. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

It looks like that folder is related to a Google application. You might want to try using Revo Uninstaller to remove it properly. It'll clean up leftover files too, not just the app itself.
Since it's an installed program folder, the owner is likely set to 'System' instead of your admin account. The folder should delete automatically when you uninstall the Google applications. If that doesn’t work, you might need to take ownership first before you can delete it.
Sounds complicated. How do I know which files are safe to remove?
Is it worth getting the paid version, or does the free one do the job?
