You have probably configured your OS to hide files with the Hidden or System attributes: try to open a command shell (start-run-cmd.exe) and then enter cd "c:\windows\installer\{3DED3A72-61A8-4B87-98A5-EF0BC8038AA0}" and then start . -> remove all files and the directory.

Or perhaps an easier way is to configure Explorer to show all files: press windows key+E, then choose tools-folder options-view and from there make sure that all files are shown, including system files.
