    Hello Yiffymaw, and welcome to Seven Forums.

    If you haven't already, you might see if restarting the computer may be able to get rid of this ghost file.

    If not, then you might see if the free program Unlocker may be able to allow you to delete/remove it.

    Hope this helps,
    Shawn
