Hi,

On a recent re-install of OneCare, I now have an exact duplicate of the program files folder. Named Windows One Care Live (2). How can I delete it. Have tried to unset read-only and reset permissions, but no luck yet. I must be missing some steps but I don't know they are. Help is appreciated. Moderators preferred, please. Thank you in advance for your time

It could be that Windows Live One Care(2) is the current active program folder. You could try deleting the original folder. My preference would be to uninstall One Care, use the cleanup tool - http://forums.microsoft.com/WindowsOneCare/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=828910&SiteID=2 reboot, check the program files folder to ensure the One care folders were deleted ( if not just delete them), then reinstall One Care.
