Hello,

You can't delete that folder. It is part of the file system, it is where everything goes that you throw in the trash. You can hide it so that it doesn't display. From the Local Disk (C:) drive, press Alt on the keyboard. A toolbar will appear at the top of the window, goto Tools menu click Folder Options. The Folder Options window will open, goto the View tab and click Restore Defaults at the bottom. Click OK.

Let me know if you need anymore assistance.

Regards,
Brandon
