I moved the folder that said back up files to the trash bin. I tried deleting but it said that files are locked and that I need to go to the options menu to unlock them. I can't find the options menu. Now I have other files that need to be deleted before I can move on.

hope you can help...

hold down alt option (on your keyboard) when you go to press empty...

also you may want to turn off time machine to prevent it from filling up the drive again
