Every time I try to move or delete minetest it comes up with (You Will Need Administrator permmision to move this folder)
I also cant rename it

This is a mostly frozen copy of the Minetest forums through 2017. If you know phpBB3 and would like to host any G-rated forum here, you can email: me@minetest.org If the email doesn't work, find out who's taken over Final Minetest from OldCoder and email them to get write access or an admin account.
I should have set this up years ago. But it's no tale of woe.
Whether the temperature is high or low, regardless of cold winds blow,
away we go like Edgar Allan Poe, on now with the show. BTW rhymes are welcome.

Go to start menu, Type Explorer in the search box and that should pull up Windows Explorer (it might just say Explorer) right click on it and select Run as Administrator, then browse to your minetest folder and move it. If you don't have Run as Administrator as an option that means you don't have Administrator permissions and you'll need to log in as the Administrator account.

Make sure it's not running. Restart your computer if you need to, that should ensure it's closed and none of it's files are being used, then try to move it.
