Can't Delete 3.99gb Phantom Garbage File!

Hi! I've been playing with a new C compiler and trying to compile a program with it, but it produced a 3.99GB garbage file. I tried to delete it several times and on three different computers. It registered as deleted, but when I refreshed the folder, the file was still there. I don't want to continue using this compiler until I can delete this file. I really want this compiler, as it seems to produce much more efficient output than what I've been using.

 

powershell (assuming it is a modern MS OS that has PowerShell)
Remove-Item -Path "C:\path\to\file.txt" -Force
or create a bootable Linux distro with Rufus and boot and delete it.

 

It's okay, because I was able to copy all the code from the problem flash drive to a new one except the folder that contains the problem file. I had to do this because the problem flash drive had errors. I tried the compiler again, and it didn't create the file. Thank you, though.
