    Boot to MEDIA like DVD or USB then advanced options and delete with no issue...
    but you do have to know cmd or DOS

    Simple "disk cleanup" tool (after clicking on it, you have "clean up system files" button) works gr8 , removes windows.old and other install files easily

    disk cleanup is so slow - I prefer the Boot Media clean - then reboot
