Unlocked was already running before your first answer so I am wait it to finish his job but it is doing anything :-(

Your tool is clear I am downloading the 64bit version.
What I don't understand is why you keep telling that is not ISO, while it is ISO!!!

Sorry for that, as I thought he zipped them, my mistake. Z-zip will copy all those files in that iso, right to your usb drive, once you format it to fat32. 7-zip can come in very handy for you in the future also. Lots of us use it.

Once you run 7-zip it will install itself unto your pull down screen in file explorer, then high-lite the iso file and right click on it, then you should see 7-zip on your list. Then choose "extract files ..." then just input your drive letter that the usb stick is in. Here is a pic of mine....

You totally SAVE ME.

Your tool at the begin crashed during the deletion of the folder, but after that, the folder was really deleted...

Well it should not have crashed at all.....but glad your folder is removed.
I have Never seen it crash actually.....

When I deleted that folder I had a window that told me that was not possible for such an error, then the screen flashes, then everything blank, then the tool was back but the icon of the desktop was strange (with a square black inside them).

If you were booted and running from your USB stick, it should not have crashed, very strange.

PS: that tool that I *simply* copy into a FAT32 pen drive, without RUFUS or else, that it worked immediately in UEFI... I don't understand.

If I had a not-UEFI BIOS what would happen? It starts the same? Or it want an NTFS file system instead?

Also, if I take a Win 10 ISO (from M$ website) and I simply COPY into a FAT32 pen it will work too? And in not-UEFI?

Please clarify these things I am very courios and sorry for the "off-topic"!

Yes UEFI you need to format the usb stick to fat32
If your system is not UEFI than format that stick to NTFS .....some are already formatted that way actually.

Yes again, you can do that with any ISO ....including Windows ISO :)

You last question ....I don't understand....your running 2 different versions of Windows on the SAME drive but just on a different partition?? ....that could lead to trouble, I would use a separate drive. But, I don't know why it is not seen, sorry.

Nothing wrong with Unlocker. I use it all the time when I have files or folders I can't delete. Just tell it to delete on the next boot and it almost always works. Ditto for a rename.

You can also use Longpath Tool.
