Why I can't delete the folder with Security - All Users - Allow Full Control?

It appears this folder was either originally owned by a user that doesn't exist on the system or was transferred from another Windows machine. This is evident by the fact the owner is being displayed by a SID (User Security Identifier).

Furthermore, the advanced security settings which define the access control list for the folder and its contents indicate Users on the desktop only have Read & Execute permissions.

You will want to change those permissions to Full Control, and change the owner to the user group DESKTOP-IOP1930\Users. You will also likely want to replace the child object permissions at this time. In order to do this, you must be an Administrator, it will not be possible with a user in the Users group.
