This is a simple tool to delete files Windows would not allow you to delete. This will do the work most of the time. If you still have difficulty in deleting please go to other posts in this series.
The problem with deleting a file can be caused by some application using that particular file OR because Windows has locked it due to some reason. If Windows has locked the file then some boot time file deleting tool can be used to delete it.
If this is not the case then it is comparatively easy. First take TaskManager (press ALT+CTRL+DEL), in the processes tab you’ll find a process named explorer, RIGHT CLICK that and click End Process Tree. This will end all the running programs that you have started through Windows explorer. (Save all unsaved documents before this)
Now try deleting th file after loading Windows Explorer (File>>New Task “explorer”). You will be able to delete the file.
