Delete folder in hotmail

Hi,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Now, to isolate this issue on your email, particularly with the email folders, may we know if you've tried other browsers, sign in to your email account and tried deleting a certain folder? Also, have you tried signing in to your email on other computer?

Regards.

I have the exact same issue!!!

All the suggested fixes do not work.

This is obviously a bug, as so many people have reported the same issue.

No I never signed in using other browsers. I only use my laptop which has latest Internet Explorer and my iPad.  So this has been an issue the last week. I must have deleted those same folders like 10x.

Then today the issue is gone. Finally the deleted folders are truly deleted. I hope. Although other people responded to my posting saying they are having the same issues.

Hope this helps.

I am glad the issue is resolved for you.

It is still not working for me and as well I am not able to rename any of my folders, very frustrating!!

It is interesting that you are not able to rename your folders.

I created a new folder a few days ago, but when I tried to delete it today, I was unable to do so.  When I right-click on the folder, the option to delete, rename, or move it has been greyed out.  All of my other folders that I have created in the past are functioning normally.

Just to see what would happen, I created a new folder with the intention of deleting it, and it deleted with no problem.  It's almost as if the folder I'm unable to delete is being treated like one of the default folders, such as "Inbox" or "Sent Items".

I've tried to delete this particular folder in the Beta version, on two different computers, and in two different browsers, all with no success.  The folder is empty, and I can successfully add and delete files, but I cannot delete the folder itself.  The folder will also not allow me to drag it to the trash folder or any other folder.

I use Windows 8.1.

Microsoft -- any ideas as to what may be going on here?
