Windows 10: Help, can't delete file!

I have a file that I can't delete, nor can I move it to a different folder. If I try to execute either of these actions, my file explorer will just completely lock up, not only that, if I even try to enter the folder in which it's contained videos my file explorer will also just lock up. I tried rebooting my computer, and CMD deleting it, but I just can't get rid of the thing. It's just a normal mkv file, and it plays back just fine, so my assumption is that something in the metadata is corrupted.
