I have a folder on my laptop which I used to access One Drive for an organisation I worked with and am no longer involved with.  It is now completely empty and I wish to delete it but cant work out how to. (Not an option on the right click menu)

The folder sits above "This PC" and "Network" when I go to File Explorer and when I check the properties it says its a System Folder. Only I have access to my laptop so the organisation haven't installed it.

I want to get rid of it as it annoys me being called the name of the organisation.

Any ideas?

Thank you Chris.  That's perfect, if a little scary.  I'll give it a go tomorrow.
