This is not a development subject: you are trying to delete a file or folder that is protected - and from it's name you are trying to remove the Windows/System folder - and you cannot do that without admin privileges.

Not to mention that deleting anything under the Windows directory is a bad idea - it can lead to a very unstable system, or one that will not power up properly.
