How to fix You require permission from administrators to delete this folder using cmd in 2025
Please try these commands in this exact order:
1. The Simplified takeown Command:
Type this and press Enter. This version is simpler and should bypass that specific error.
takeown /f "C:\Program Files (x86)\360" /r
i am using C:\Program Files (x86)\360 it to delete folder in C: program files (x86) with the name 360.
You should see a series of "SUCCESS" messages as it takes ownership of all the files.
2. The icacls Command (to grant permissions):
After the first command succeeds, run this one:
icacls "C:\Program Files (x86)\360" /grant administrators:F /t
You should see messages about files being processed successfully.
3. The Final rd Command (to delete the folder):
Once the two commands above are done, this final command will delete the folder.
rd /s /q "C:\Program Files (x86)\360"
After this command, there should be no output if it succeeds. You'll just see a new, empty command line. You can verify it's gone by typing
dir "C:\Program Files (x86)"
and checking that the "360" folder is no longer in the list.
Once you're done, just type shutdown /r /t 0 and press Enter to restart your PC back into normal mode.
