Folder Access Denied #19

Hello, I downloaded the .zip file for this repository to check it out for myself, I attempted to delete it after I was done but it keeps saying "Folder Access Denied", not letting me delete it no matter what I tried, is there a solution to this? I tried looking things up on Google with no success.

Never mind, It seems like deleting it with the command prompt in administrator mode does the trick. I don't know if it was just my carelessness that led to the problem but, If anyone else has the same issue then all you have to do is (on Windows) search "Command Prompt" or "cmd", then look for the command prompt app and right-click it and click "Run as Administrator", if you're running Windows 10 or 11, you should also get the same option in the search menu rather than having to right-click the app icon. After you launch Command Prompt in Administrator mode, type and enter the following in the command prompt: "rmdir /s PATH", the "PATH" stands for the file path, in other words, the location of the file on your computer. For example, if the file is on your desktop, then you'd type and enter this: rmdir /s C:\Users\USERNAME\OneDrive\Desktop\picklebox-main or rmdir /s C:\Users\USERNAME\Desktop\picklebox-main. Replace "USERNAME" with your actual laptop username, you can find it by going to the "C:\Users" file in your file explorer. This will ensure that the file and all its contents get deleted.
