Cannot Delete Old OneDrive Folder

[ldmartin]

This is driving me up the wall... my company OneDrive is synced to my computer all find and dandy. However there is an old folder from a previous sync of the same account that I can't delete. This folder is no longer syncing or has anything to do with the current OneDrive folder. When trying to remove files I'm met with the following error.

 

 

That makes sense as the folder is no longer connected to OneDrive. But then how on earth can I remove the 300GB of data that's just sat there dormant?

 

One recommendation is to turn off Files on Demand in the OneDrive app, but I can't really do that as I don't have enough space on the SSD because of this extra 300GB of data.

 

Seems like I need a force delete to just erase it idk. Other online articles haven't helped. Any suggestions?

In case you have the same issue, using Command Prompt to clear the folder pretty much worked. The folder is still there but is now 0 bytes. All that's left is some folders - I'm happy with that.
