I've made a terrible mistake, can anyone help please?

The short of it: I have taken out the SD card from my kobo and I would like to delete a file on it, but I don't know how to do it on my Windows 7 machine.

My machine does not recognise the card when I put it in the card reader and asks to format it (which obviously I have not done). I have found a porgramme to read the card on windows (this one) and I can see the file I want to delete, but this programme does not allow me to. Can anybody help please?


The background: playing around with Tshering's hack, I decided to uninstall, which is done by a tgz file. After rebooting, I saw that the directories created by Tshering programme where still there, so I deleted them manually. But then after another reboot the device game me a blank page. As I had just backed up the device, I saw on the backup tha tthe .tgz file was still there: so I guess when I try and reboot the .tgz file goes looking for something it does not find. I presume that if I can get rid of the .tgz file all will be well again (or similarly if I copy back the directories I had erased manually).
