Suddenly I can't remove files in Windows 11. The error message says the item isn't found at the specified location. In older versions, I used to restart or boot into safe mode to delete files. Now those methods don't help and I'm having trouble finding a solution online.

I've also been using third-party tools to attempt file removal, but Windows 11 now blocks deletions. The only change was after installing an update this morning.

I fixed the problem myself. If deleting files or folders isn't possible, run the following command in a command prompt with admin privileges. All other methods tried didn't work.
