It says preparing to delete then doesn't do anything.
I can read and copy to this drive. why can't I delete a folder on it?

I already said I had write permissions to it.
For some reason i needed to delete individual folders inside the folder first.
I don't now why this was required. It seems like a bug.
Hi Alan,
I'm Sumit, here to answer your query at the Microsoft Community.
Deleting will require permissions. Are you sure your account has appropriate permissions which should be configured on the server?
Please keep us posted.
