Windows 10: Unable to delete a incomplete download from my downloads.

When I was recently downloading a music file from my browser, it stopped downloading like when it was about to be finished. I waited a while and it wouldnt finish at all. So I just tried to download it again and the same problem happened. So i went to delete the unfinished file from the downloads folder. I also noticed that before I went to delete it there were 2 files instead of just the music file. There was the music file and also a .part file. I deleted the .part file with no problem but when I tried to delete the music file, it just wouldnt. It would just sit at 0%. So I went to the cmd p

Unable to download

Is there something wrong with the server providing the download for SysTool? I'm unable to download the application using Firefox or IE.

Are there any mirrors?

Thanks.

 

Delete Incomplete Video Download

Thanks Denis, but therein lies the rub. It is the incomplete Xbox video download that is taking up the space and can't seem to be deleted. Downloaded videos seem to reside in the app space rather than the video folder. The app itself cannot be uninstalled,
nor can it be moved to the SD card via storage sense.

 

How can I free up space taken up by an incomplete Microsoft Store download?

Found the solution. Steps I used to fix this:

1. Open the C:\Program Files\WindowsApps folder, which is where the Windows Store puts its downloads. The WindowsApps folder isn't permissioned to normal users, so this has to be done using some utility that's being run as administrator (either a command prompt window, or some other file manager like 7zip; h/t ManSamVampire for the 7zip suggestion). DO NOT assign ownership of the WindowsApps folder to your own user account to gain access to it, as doing so will cause major problems and can't be easily undone (h/t Ramhound's answer for this warning).
   
2. Sort the subfolders inside WindowsApps by the date they were last modified; this will let you easily find the folders that have recently had new stuff put into them.
   
3. In my case, the offending subfolder was called MSIXVC, which is apparently a type of installer used by the Windows Store. Inside, I had an anomalous 37GB file created last night with no file extension, called "8BBF2763-A1C6-4F1B-96CA-B79DD5FDA4EE". Given that this file was enormous, created at the right time, and in a subfolder suggesting it was an installer, I concluded that this was the droid I was looking for.
   
4. From within your run-as-administrator utility, delete the offending file. I deleted the ginormous, bafflingly-named file from the MSIXVC folder, and lo and behold I had all my disk space back!
   

Now redownloading and installing Outer Worlds. This time I'll know better than to turn off my computer partway through.
