I ran into an issue while trying to uninstall a game yesterday. There's a broken file that I can't seem to remove, and every time I try, I get a notification saying the file is broken and unreadable. Even after uninstalling the entire platform, that file is still stuck there! I heard from someone here that using WinRAR to turn the file into a zip might help, but it just makes a copy, and deleting that copy doesn't change anything. I'm not the best with fixing tech issues, so I'd really appreciate some easy-to-follow suggestions.

If you haven't already, you might want to check the hard drive for errors using the Disk Check tool. Just right-click on the drive in 'My Computer', go to Properties, then Tools, and click 'Check'. It can fix some corrupted files automatically.
Is your broken file on an external hard drive or an SSD? Sometimes the type of drive can affect how files behave. If it's on an external hard drive, that might be causing the issue. Maybe try using the built-in Windows tools to check the drive for errors.
