Since you have tried several deletion options and it has not been possible you can try these options.

1. Boot into Safe Mode: Restart your computer in Safe Mode and try to delete the folder.

2. Use Command Prompt:
- Open Command Prompt as administrator.
- Navigate to the folder location using the `cd` command.
- Use the `rmdir /s /q "folder name"` command to forcefully delete the folder and its contents.

I hope this can help you
