Here's a manual way of doing it. I'll take this off once
you put into your first post zain.

1. Start
2. Run
3. Type: command
4. To move into a directory type: cd c:\*** (The stars
stand for your folder)

5. If you cannot access the folder because it has
spaces for example Program Files or Kazaa Lite folder
you have to do the following. instead of typing in the
full folder name only take the first 6 letters then put a
~ and then 1 without spaces. Example: cd c:
\progra~1\kazaal~1

6. Once your in the folder the non-deletable file it in
type in dir - a list will come up with everything inside.

7. Now to delete the file type in del ***.bmp, txt,
jpg, avi, etc... And if the file name has spaces you
would use the special 1st 6 letters followed by a ~
and a 1 rule.
Example: if your file name was bad
file.bmp you would type once in the specific folder
thorugh command, del badfil~1.bmp and your file
should be gone.
Make sure to type in the correct
extension.
