Constant Popups and Deletion

So yesterday I restored my computer to factory settings. However, during the restoration it gave me the option to make a back up file of all my old files. I did so, however I wish to delete them now because I keep getting pop-ups and all the infected files are in that folder. When I go to delete the folder though, it says recycling and then nothing happens. I have no idea how to get rid of this folder....I even deleted the 4 GB backup program in Add/Remove Programs in the control panel. If anyone has a method of deleting this file, I would much appreciate it. Thanks.
