I had an .srt file in my desktop and each time i am trying to delete it i just can't! Windows can't find the filepath. It's 0 byte etc! Any thoughts? I tried the "Take ownership" but still same :(

I think you answered your question in the title, it is already deleted. Try refreshing your desktop and/or rebooting. sometimes Windows "forgets" a file is deleted.

Malwarebytes has a permanent file delete feature, give that a go.
