Deleting Large Files in Win 10

I am having problems deleting large files in Win 10. When I ask it to delete a large folder it sits there and counts each and every file for hours before it will initiate the delete process. I don't remember having this problem in Win 7. Any work arounds to just get it to delete the folder like right now instead of playing around? I have set recycle bin to delete files.
 
Windows does like to play count the files before a folder structure deletion through explorer.

Get up a command prompt, change directory to where the folder is and run
RMDIR FOLDERNAME /S /Q
That will delete that folder and all its contents without any further confirmation.
