Been there.
I once created a folder and file using W API and \?\\ syntax for
testing purposes.
This all went well, but Windows did not like it and would not let me
remove the file and folder.
I rewote my test program to remove them, but still Windows refused.
(The folder name ended in a space, you could not even browse to the
folder in Windows Explorer)

I then booted a live Linux distribution and removed it from there.
No problem whatsoever.
