I have an opencart folder on my server, and I want to delete it, however I can’t because my FTP client simply say’s:

550 shop_Opencart: Operation not permitted

I understand that some files have different permissions etc but why, as the server admin, can I not delete these files, or change the file permissions? Is there anything else that stops these files from being deleted or modified, other than file permissions?

Even using the control panel (in this case PLESK) I cannot delete them, I get a Permission denied error.

What can I do?
