Resolved SUDO Command?

Greetings!

I just bought a new computer (I will post specs soon) that came with Windows 7 Home Premium.

On my old XP system I had the "My Documents" folder mapped to drive D:

I'm now using the default location of the documents folder on drive C: and want to use my old drive D: (an external USB drive) for backups.

The problem:

There are quite a few system and program generated folders with names like "1a7d354b42ddcc541a12c3" and "26db1b2cb17907885973bcd7bfd7a8" that I want to delete, but no matter what I try Win 7 won't let me.

I've read all the tutorials on "Take Ownership" and have tried both the context menu and command line versions of these tips, but I still can't delete the folders. I keep getting the message "You require permission, blah, blah, blah..." I am logged on as administrator.

I'm more of a Unix geek than Windows. Is there an equivalent of the unix "sudo" command for Windows 7 that will just assume you know what you're doing and let you execute any command, no matter what the possible consequences?

Thanks again peoples!

Thanks for the suggestions. I tried the elevated command line and it still didn't work.

There is/was no real problem leaving the files there, other than I like to keep things neat and tidy. also, I don't like computers "running us"

I did just backup my data, reformat the drive, then copy all of the files back. I now have a nice, neat backup drive.

Thanks again for the input.
