Sub-Folder not removable on deduplicated disk.

Hi,

A few days ago I had to copy a share from one server to another. When I found that the copy action failed, I moved the failed copied folder to a subdirectory in the root of the disk and tried to copy the share another way. This worked. However, when I wanted to delete the failed copy that I temporarily stored in a subfolder I got an access denied message. It seems that windows 2012 R2 created a System Volume Information folder with 2 subfolders called Dedup & SRM in the failed copy.

Pressumably windows figured that the second attempt to copy the fileshare contained some files that where already on the disk and therefor tried to dedup them. However, now I'm stuck with this folder that doesn't want to be deleted. Beter, I'm actually a little fearfull that it could affect other files or folders on that disk that might have files which where in the failed copy.

What can I do from here?

Regards,

Joham
