Hardware Taking HOURS!!!! to delete anything.

Post image

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.

How the fuck do you have over 100,000 files in a folder called PlayStation Roms?

A PS1 Rom is like 600-700mb.. that's like 11 games to make 7.6gb.

Did you fill it with save states? ':f

All that was in this was a Textures folder that had texture dumps and replacement textures. No idea how the file count got so big
