I get that problem sometimes, i hate it, Theres an easy and free way to fix it though Go to Start>Run Type cmd In this window type CD then your directory, so lets say the problem file is in C:\Download, i would type: CD C:\Download Then type del and then the filename, lets say the filename is fatness.mp3 i would type: del "fatness.mp3" you dont HAVE to use the quotes, but i suggest you do to get in the habit of it, because if your filename has a space in it, you NEED the quotes, Say for instance del "stupid peice of crap file that wont delete.exe" That works without fail every time
