Type the name of the undeletable file in the Named or Search For box
Make sure the Look In box shows the correct drive letter
Click on Find Now or Search Now and let the computer find the file
Once the file is located, right-click on it and choose properties, make a note of the file location. Usually this is something similar to
c:\windows\system32\undeleteablefilesname.exe
