Can try this tool to uninstall instead of "delete"

In order to disable/enable/uninstall USB items under Windows Vista/7/2008 with UAC turned on, you should right click on USBDeview and choose 'Run As Administrator'. In order to disable/enable USB items on x64 systems, you also must use the x64 version of USBDeview.

It should not be something unless I suspect that the drivecleanup.exe has installed driver else system rights as service to delete those resource. The approach shared should already passed UAC and have the privilege though.

It worked. Without giving any specific access… On other win 7 Machine, while I have tried to remove logs manually on my Machine by giving all required access manually. but no luck!!
