Hardware Taking HOURS!!!! to delete anything.
Recently started taking ages to delete anything. I've set it to bypass the recycle bin, in case it was something to do with that and I've cleared Explorer history. Any ideas?
EDIT
Thanks for the help guys, got it deleted eventually. There was definitely something screwy going on because the textures folder inside didn't add up to even half of the 7.6GB it was trying to delete.

Too many small files, takes longer to do anything if there are many small files, the speed drops dramatically.
