How to Get Rid of Sub-Folders

Sub-folders can be the worst nightmare of somebody trying to clean up their hard drive. A sub-folder is used to store contents inside a folder that is inside of another folder. For instance, if storing a picture inside of a folder named "2011," and the "2011" folder is located inside of the "Pictures" folder, the "2011" folder then becomes categorized as a sub-folder. Unfortunately, there is only one way to get rid of sub-folders. You must do it by hand.
