There's not enough info. Which file are you trying to delete? If it's a system file, it's probably protected. You may not be the owner of the file and thus not have permission to delete it. Or, the file attribute may be "read only" which will also prevent it from being deleted. If you are the owner of the file you can right-click it and select properties then turn off the read only attribute.
