Windows 11 cannot delete 0KB files, prompting that administrator permissions are required?
A file became corrupted, turned into 0KB, 360's force delete tool was ineffective, and deleting it prompts for administrator permission. How can it be deleted?
When a file becomes corrupted, shows as 0KB, and cannot be deleted even with specialized tools, it can be quite stubborn. Since it prompts for administrator permission, you probably need to use advanced methods with elevated privileges.
