    Hi Hanton, instead of that location, try clicking 'All files' above that folder, then selecting the folder on the right to get the option to delete the folder.

    Hey Hanton, sorry to jump in here.

    A screenshot of what you see would definitely help us figure this out.

    As long as you're replying here from a computer, once you click on the reply button, you will be able to see a button to attach a picture.
