== TrustedInstaller won't let me delete a file or folder ==The TrustedInstaller user account started with Windows 7. For Windows 8 and 8.1 it basically works the same way. The TrustedInstaller user account owns your system files.  If you try to delete a system file such as notepad.exe then you will receive an error.  See our help page on [[Working Around TrustedInstaller]] to find out how to take ownership of your files and delete system files you want to be rid of, such as the lousy notepad.exe that Microsoft is so proud of.
