Hello,
One of the options in the tutorial below should be able to remove it for you. :)

Tried Option one, it does nothing and 2 and 3 I get "Access Denied"
In that case see if the free program Malwarebytes FileASSASSIN or Unlocker may be able to delete it.
Simple really,
Step 1, open windows explorer and right click on c:\ drive
Step 2, go to properties
Step 3, click on disk cleanup
Step 4, let it do its thing for a minute then click on "Clean up system files" and make sure previous windows installations is checked.
Step 5, click "OK" and "Delete files"
Try it in safe mode
It sounds like you don't have elevated privileges or ownership of the file....
Well I restarted my computer, it is no faster. It still takes over 10 seconds for this stupid machine to completely shut off and restart.
