I was acting encumbered with a wrong assumption and a result from and "incorrect testcase" :(. When you asked me if it is required to use both calls I've run some more tests while replying and saw that DeleteFile works just ok with mode 0400 files when FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY is unset. On the other hand the method I've suggested doesn't work with FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY set i.e. no difference between DeleteFile and CreateFile/FILE_FLAG_DELETE_ON_CLOSE.
