I unzipped my system backup to my test partition but now have a problem
I've had a few times before: the \Desktop\"OS!2 System"\Templates\
directory won't delete.

I know there are utilities which will delete it. I know you can drag it
to a floppy. But I don't know *why* it won't delete.

The Templates Properties don't show it as being ReadOnly or System.
"ATTRIB *" doesn't find any files inside it. Its EA's are only
.CLASSINFO, .ICONPOS and .LONGNAME -- nothing obvious (to me) that would
foil a delete. I'm no expert on .CLASSINFO and I would have tried
removing it to see what would happen but EABROWSE only lets me look, not
change.

Why won't it delete?
