    Try CCleaner . How or where are you deleting your file from? USB stick/external drive or internal HD? If you are deleting something make sure you're not doing something on the same drive that you are deleting from. Also make sure that other softwares such as antivrius isn't interfering with files within those folders.

    You can probably use other free softwares to delete files faster. But if you are using CCleaner(recommended) select Options>Include to choose Folders or Files to delete.

    Make sure that you really want to delete them because it will also clean out your Recycle Bin. But you do have the option to uncheck Empty recycle bin when cleaning up. Check and make sure the option that you want before run cleaner.
