    Strange 70gb file that i cant delete


    so i was looking through some files on my computer and eventually found my way (with some difficulties due to windows not giving me permission) to the windowsapps folder in my d: drive. it had 3 files in it, but only one was of interest. It was titled 'DeepSilver.ProjectWindfall_1.0.32.0_x64__hmv7qcest37me' and i took a look through it and to the best of my knowledge it is a complete game file for metro exodus, stranger yet is that ive never downloaded metro exodus on this computer, nor have i bought it. the date modified was all at the same time of may 27th this year. its 70 gb and when i attempt to delete any file from it windows denies access and i cant even get to the more options page like i can with other files.

    id love to know what the hell this is here for and how i can get rid of this. any help would be greatly apreciated.

    p.s. not sure if the bug tag is best here but its the closest i can get to whatever this is.

    Cant Delete Files From Desktop

    Well, ran into a weird bug with vista, for some reason i cant delete files from desktop, this normaly happens to .exe files, the ONLY fix seems to be to KILL explorer.exe, and delete the file, then restat explorer, anybody got any idea why this happens?
