4.8gb file on my ssd.

How can i remove the file c:\Recovery\Customizations\usmt.ppkg when it is locked by System of windows 10?

I cannot remove it because it seems to be used by another process.

I used process explorer to find out which process locks usmt.ppkg, it seems it is "System".

I am aware of the consequences of removing this file, but it should be possible to remove this file even if it is completly unsafe.

Safe mode doesn't seem to work either. And i can't kill the "System" process. I can't also use "close handle" feature of process explorer cause a error popsup: error opening process: the handle is invalid.

and links to after warnings a user links another thread that has a guide on how to do it

If you don't link clicking links just do a net search for
'removing c:\Recovery\Customizations\usmt.ppkg' and it was the result for me
