When you tried to delete with Root Explorer, did you mount r/w first?
Which app and did you Mount R/W?

I'm on stock rooted MDL and I can't seem to put my filesystem into read/write. I have tried ES explorer, Solid explorer, and even tried the remount rw command in Terminal Emulator. No joy.
Anyone come across this our have an idea? Haven't tried adb copy yet.

I am also having a similar problem, I just rooted my S4(SPH-L720) running 4.3 MK2(Stock Recovery and ROM) with CF-Auto-Root and when i try to use "SystemApp Remover" it shows system as not mounted. If I use Root File Manager I can change it to R/W and do whatever. But other then that I can not get /system mounted with R/W.

Meh, I couldn't figure it out and never found anything on it. Ended up flashing (Odin) a rooted Stock ROM (4.3 MK2) with philz recovery.
I wanted to keep my phone as close to stock as possible and just have root but inevitably I always go to a custom ROM. So my middle ground was the rooted stock ROM and I've had no issues so far.
I can't seem to access /data from File Manager or ES File Explorer, even though I have root access. I am on CM12 Lollipop.
I was able to access /data after rooting when I was on KitKat. Now the folder just returns empty. Is there any change in Lollipop regarding this?
I'm running stock Moto G4 plus firmware (Android 7.0, Nougat) on my XT1644 with TWRP 3.1.1-0 recovery, ElementalX 1.04 kernel and root with SuperSU 2.82. I'm not sure how relevant the android version is because I've noticed the same thing on every build of stock android version with root that I've tried so far.
When I go into the TWRP directory within android using a file explorer (I've tried Root Browser File Manager, ES File Explorer, Root Explorer), I can never see any of the contents of the TWRP folder. I can get into the TWRP folder, but it is just empty. The only way I can get access to the contents of the TWRP folder is to mount the phone's drive in TWRP. Also, when an OTA update downloads, I go to the cache folder in root to look for it but it is not there. I'm guessing it's the same issue that's preventing me from seeing the OTA file. However, I can't access the root directory through TWRP's mounting so I cannot grab the OTA file at all.
Is this the intended behaviour? I can see the contents of these folders on my Nexus 5. Is there any way to change/fix this?
Its preaty simple. I just want to flash twrp, reboot to trwp recovery mode, go to file manager, move a installed app to system/app and then reboot and use my phone as usual. Have someone tried this?
no one ?

Yes, always. But you need root to change the permissions of the app.
Just root and use file explorer to copy apps to system/app or system/priv-app and set permissions.
