I did this once but then the folder refused to delete. And for those on laptops without number pads, look for a button labeled "fn". If you have it, then find the num lock button. Hold down the fn button and press num lock. This should switch certain letters on the keyboard (7,8,9,U,I,O,J,K,L,M) to the num pad.
