Do not change that folder name, causing this result in failure or malfunction in Windows.

The folder named 'Program Files' is Windows Root folder where it installs and create registry paths for programs.

He doesn't seem to be talking about Program Files. He mentions a folder called "C:/Program".
What is in this folder? Where did it come from?
If you created it, I see no problem with renaming it.

you can delete the folder som trojan program tries to install on your pc, with the intention to crash it, that why windows gives you that message. delete and scan for spyware/virus
