have you tried deleting the file from commands?

or file may be "undeletable" by indexing service, goin to the file's property from right click, then uncheck "allow indexing" option. You may solve this problem permanently by remove programs/ win accessories then indexing service

hope this solved the problem

Try deleting in Safe Mode.

If that doesn't work, then try Unlocker

Try the following. If this doesn't work, provide a screenshot of the files in question: -
