Can no longer delete folder or report within as Admin

Hi All,   Im not sure what has happened but for some reason I can no longer Admin manage a folder and a report within. I cannot even delete it.  All I can do is open the report. And I am running as...
Administrator
manage
Report Server

    Hi

    It's easily done, trashed my own access a few times.  

     

    Can you log into the server directly using a Builtin\Administrator account and add back in your AD Group/Account back into the folder security?  Alternatively you'll need to delete the folder structure above the one you can't mnage and rebuild the structure downwards.

     

    Highlights the absolute lack of administrative tools available to the on-prem solution.  Shame on MS.
