Right click it and remove all library locations from it, then delete it. That may do the trick.

This seems like a reasonable solution to removing a folder

The folder didn't get there by itself, sd did something stupid to put it there.

Next time you are in MHK sd, just swing by the hemmy repair shop and I will fix it an minimal charge.

Nice. I am going to send mine directly to Steve Jobs because he seems like a very caring person. I bet he fixes it for free.
