title: Cannot fully delete jetBrains folder after uninstall?
body: <p>So i have been using the community edition of intelliJ now for a couple of months with no problems, that is until today, i first noticed that when trying to create and save a new project into my usual folder on the desktop as i have done for countless projects now, it was instead creating some .iml file type within this folder and not a project folder with the name i had specified containing all the usual scr and other folders etc etc, and in the project view instead of seeing my usual package and class (rather small progression of drop downs) there was instead the entire contents of the source folder that i always choose to save all my projects in, i went through a set-up process again of configuring the SDK etc and that is when i noticed that for some reason or another the SDK had been reset to NO SDK!, i thought this might have solved the issue but to no avail the same problem continued even with the SDK set back to what it was previously, it would however let me save projects as i had been doing previously straight onto the desktop in which it would as expected create a project folder with the name of my choosing at the time of creation, and no silly weird never seen before .iml files types, eventually i got tired of the SDK resetting to NO SDK every time i exited the application and also with still be no further forward in figuring out why my projects were no longer saving as they once did i went for the nuclear option and uninstalled, which then brought me to more problems, upon trying to re-install i cannot install it where i would like (which is the jetBrains folder in programs) because the installer tells me i must install to an empty folder, this then led me to realize that the uninstaller had not removed everything, so i navigated to the jetBrains folder in my programs folder to manually delete it in order that i can re-install intelliJ and now im being told "folder access denied" so i cant delete the jetBrains folder as i dont have administrator privileges apparently, which i most certainly do as ive checked my user account (being the only one on the entire system) and it says "administrator", i then went to the properties of the jetBrains folder as well to check and the administrator (i.e. ME) is the owner of that folder, so im now completely stumped, in summary:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>I cant re-install intelliJ, until it has an empty folder.</li>
  <li>I cant empty the folder because i cant delete it.</li>
  <li>I cant delete it because i dont have admin privileges(which i definitely do!).</li>
  <li>And ever if i get all of this sorted none of it guarantees that it will solve the whole problem that started this, the project saving issue, i could still after all this end up with my projects not saving as they have been and the SDK resetting every time exit the application.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Any help with any and all of these issues would be greatly appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>

  <p>Edit 1.</p>
  
  <p>My apologies i should have said my OS is Windows 10.</p>
  
  <p>Edit 2.</p>
  
  <p>This would be my normal process for creating a new project:
  1. I would select new project.
  2. I would then select Java and click next.
  3. I would check the box "create project from template" as i had done for untold amounts of projects before today.
  4. I would then name my project and click finish.</p>
  
  <p>That was it, that was all i had to do and a new project folder with all its contents was added to my root projects folder which contains all projects ive done in the past 2 months.</p>
  
  <p>Now however, i realized for some reason my projects were not in my usual root folder and were saving in some idea folder in Users/Dave, upon trying to change the saving location back to my usual folder i was presented with a question on whether or not i wished to overwrite the current folder (yes/no), I chose neither of these options as I did not want to overwrite but knowing that the computer would automatically create a new folder if I chose “no”, I did not want this either, I simply wanted it to save the new project I was creating with the name I was defining into the already existing JavaPrograms folder as it had been doing for months, but it just wouldn’t, instead it would create a folder called .idea and in this folder was a bunch of files types and ext of the sort that were not in any other of my individual project folders, at the bottom of the root folder was the .iml file (so was not in the newly created .idea folder), in short it did not matter what newly created project I made and it did not matter what I called it, it was always a .idea folder that was created containing as noted above, and there was always a .iml file created outwith the .idea folder but still within the main root folder, I just don’t understand why this has happened, I was programming last night, went to bed, got up today and THIS!!!!.</p>
  
  <p>Please help.</p>
