Error: "(photo)...could not be deleted. You do not have permission to delete this item"

Error: "(photo)...could not be deleted. You do not have permission to delete this item" After copying my iPhone 6 photos to my Windows 10 desktop I am not able to delete select photos on my iPhone 6 through my desktop (while phone is connected) any longer. I can copy them over to the desktop but cannot delete them. I know that there is a way to delete them by doing so through the iPhone only, but this would be very cumbersome since I only want to delete select photos out of over a 1000. I used to be able to delete the photos through my desktop on my old iPhone 4s. Thank you...Jeff

iPhone 6, iOS 8.4.1

Thank you for your reply. This has gone on for months, however, I did reboot the Win 10 desktop, as well as the iPhone 6 and tried again. I still received the same error. I checked my desktop SETTINGS, ACCOUNTS, and my login does indeed show Administrator rights. Any other ideas? Thank you...Jeff
