Mac OSX 10.9.5 hosting Win 7 x64 - multiple "Documents" folder in shared drive.

Hi all,

I'm hoping someone can explain what is going on here. I have two extra copies of my Documents folder outside of the User directory, each seemingly identical in size and content. They are each 36.5 GB in size, and contain mostly .vmdk files. I tried to delete one and I received an error that said I require permission from S-1-1-0 to make changes to this folder. What does that mean?

Here is an imgur album with screenshots: http://imgur.com/a/UPWeY

This whole thing doesn't make any sense because it's saying the total size of my shared folder is larger than my physical drive, which is impossible. But, I do have a bloated system and I suspect this has something to do with the problem. I've attached a picture of my Mac storage showing that I have 80GB of "other" and I have no clue what it is. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Joel
