In a case like this, I would check the permissions of the folders and their contents.
If they are set to something like 0444, you cannot delete them until you change the permissions to something like 0666 (files) or 0755 (directories).
Drupal, for example, sets the permissions on the settings.php file for security reasons to 0444 which makes it and its folder impossible to remover without changing the permissions.

So you've tried the permissions that @Angus had mentioned?
What are you using in attempt to delete the files/folders?
I have a feeling that it should be to do with the file/folder ownership (group, user).

I use in the CPanel the file manager. But i can't delete some of the file's. I've tried it too with FTP.

Can you try using an FTP client to see if it's just the file manager having the issue?

Hi,

I have corrected your file permissions. All files should be 644, and directories should be 755. :)

Thank you,
