Norton Protection is a pain.

If you’re stuck like I was when trying to clearing out/delete the nprotect folder. I would encounter the error:

nprotect\00004107. – The system cannot find the file specified.

Where the number 00004107 is some sequential number.

To erase all of it, I had to do this:

del \\?\c:\recycler\nprotect\*.*

where c: is the drive you wish to clear out.

Fun fun!
