Can't Delete an old Dropbox

[shoutingsteve]

Well, this is a pickle!  I just upgraded my boot SSD and all is going fine, except one thing.  I have my dropbox on my secondary hard drive, and I want to reinstall it.  So I download the installer and chose the path to my old dropbox.  The preferences window tells me that I can't put my dropbox folder there because there is already a dropbox directory in that location.  No problem, I try and delete the folder and figure it will just re-sync everything.  No bueno: it won't delete the folder.  Okay, FINE... I guess I have to uninstall the program to clear out any access issues.

So uninstall, and reboot for good measure.

Still can't uninstall one of the folders... so I try to take ownership of it and nothing seems to be able to force it's way through this stupid folder.  I even tried some dumb force delete program and it just tells me that the deletion failed.

 

I tried to follow along with a command prompt guide, but the steps didn't line up for me so i wasn't able to follow along, but i am willing ot try again if someone can explain it better.

The location is just "B:\Dropbox"
