First off, changing your os (Operating system (ie Windows xp)) has nothing to do with your web browser (ie firefox). Changing your operating system, would be going from windows XP to OSX etc. Changing browsers is just changing the software you use to browse the internet.
As for deleteing that file, try PocketKillBox.
Usage Information:
Download this file, extract it, and run the killbox.exe file. When it loads type the full path to the file you would like to delete in the field and press the Delete File button (looks like a red circle with a white X).
It will prompt you to reboot,allow it to do so, and hopefully your file will now be deleted.
