My customer has a folder on the desktop named "Junk".  When I try to delete it I get the message ---  "Junk is a system folder and is required for Windows to run properly. It cannot be deleted."  I can rename this folder but it has no effect.  I deleted it using a DOS boot disk and I could no longer find it using DOS commands.  When I reboot to Windows98 SE the folder has mysteriously reappeared.  What makes a folder a "System Folder"?  How do I delete this thing?

Thanks, Jim
