Need some handholding

Okay...today updated my Rockbox from Jan build to Mar build. After I copied the .Rockbox directory and the rockbox,iriver file to the player...I had a terrible thought that I was supposed to delete the old files before copying the new ones. So I tried to delete the .rockbox directory but Win XP wouldn't let me because of the "." in the directory name so I renamed it to Rockbox. Now it won't let me delete it because of the file "viewers.cfg <" that is inside. I am now unable to delete that damn config file...how can I delete this directory and the underlying .cfg file? I've reloaded Rockbox and everything works...and I've deleted the other files under "Rockbox" to free up disk space.

All I need now is final cleanup and removal of the old Rockbox directory (renamed from .Rockbox to Rockbox)...
