While trying to create a virtual machine I (without thought) named a file wrong. It was the iso for the VM and its name is now "win7 iso.iso".

So now its open in system, which prevents me from renaming or modifying it. at this point I'll be fine with simply deleting it. I cant delete, rename or move it.

additional note:

the file is in the F drive.

I've tried to force delete it but it doesn't work for me (at least through cmd the way i tried it: )


C:\Windows\system32>del F:\Libraries\Virtual Machines\win7 iso.iso

The system cannot find the file specified.
