Vault unlocks and assigns drive letter, but later the drive cannot be opened

In relation to my previous reply - I looked into uninstalling dokany and reinstalling it again as I suspect it did not install/update properly.

It seems I have a problem in uninstalling it completely/cleanly in that I cannot seem to delete the dokan1.sys file that it generates (referred to this thread also). I was able the dokan1.dll file though.

However unlike the last user who posted there, I already did a registry clean up, made sure I had the right permissions, tried using Unlocker/LockHunter programs (could not delete, even at restart), booted in safe mode to try and delete it there, tried deleting via CMD…I can’t delete it! I don’t know what to do.

Getting quite frustrated now as I feel like this has to do with my cryptomator problems
