double copy of vista file find after install
Hi, I just try to install a x64 version of vista ultimate in my pc to have a
trial.
However during the 1st time installation, there is an error saying that it
cant access to the disk and ask me to restart the installation process.
After that I can successfully run vista in the second install, but I find
out that there is an windows.old.000 folder in C: which contain 3 folders
(program files, program files (x86) and Windows).
It takes up 10GB of the storage and I cant delete it even I set my login
account to admin type.
It always pop up saying I need permission to do it.
Is there anyone can help?
Thx a lot!

Re: double copy of vista file find after install
Hi,

Take ownership of it. Right click, select properties. Go the Security tab,
click on advanced. On the ownership tab click on edit, then change it to
your account. Make sure you check the box to have it propogate to subfolders
and containers. Apply/Ok your way out, then try deleting it.
