    I've been looking for a way to delete special folders like these:

    I'll never in my life use Contacts/downloads/favorits/music/saved games/video's/ searchs

    Anyway to delete/hide them?, well, not just "hidden" because i have show hidden files on.

    Tried looking on google but all i could find was how to move them, not what i need.

    If it won't let you delete them then I expect they're built into windows and may be system folders. You could just move them to get them out of the way if you can't just right click and press delete. That would be about as close as you could get to deleting them.

    I don't really want to try it on my pc because I use pretty much all those folders ;)
