So-called "System" file unable to delete

[themitchguy]

I have this file on my desktop that's undeniably NOT an important system file, it was in an archive of a few Guitar Pro sheet music files I downloaded. However, It's marked as a system file, and when I go to delete it, a message pops up saying the file doesn't exist in that location anymore, when it's plain that it does. I'm wondering if it's malware or something of the sort, and if not, I want it gone anyways. Any help?

Can you right click on a file?
What's the full file name?

I changed the directories' names b/c the computer was at first saying the file names were too long, but it's now C:\Users\Mitch\Desktop\all\1\1\1\1\Guitar_Pro_sheets_plus[v2.3].torrent. Usually, wouldn't it be a torrent file? it's saying it's a system file.

And I can right click on it, but no modifications can be made, since the computer doesn't recognize it exists in that spot anymore. In the Security tab, there's nothing in it. Same with the Details tab. the general tab says it's size is 0 bytes.

I did the scan, but no cigar:

However, I noticed that there is a space after the file extension in the actual file, so instead of ".torrent" it's ".torrent " Would that be part of the problem?

Run SystemLook with little bit different code:

:filefind
Guitar_Pro_sheets_plus*
