Impossibile to erase this folder!

Hi all... I can't erase the folder named "~roberto" into my Macintosh HD Folder...

It appears suddenly after I don't know what...

Can you help me?

Thank you.

It’s on the read-only system volume, so you would need to boot from another drive or single-user mode to delete it.

Single-user mode requires an understanding of Unix to remove the folder as you are in the command line.
