What do you mean "heavy images"? Please see these links for help in
crafting a good newsgroup post:
http://www.dts-l.org/goodpost.htm
http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
Then do come back and repost with all necessary details. There are lots
of people reading this newsgroup who want to help you (like me), but
you have to give us something with which to work.
In the meantime, try deleting the images in Safe Mode. If you have
thousands of them, don't try to delete them all at once.

I don't suppose you received a message that said "impossible to
delete". What is the actual message you get?

It's easy to make a decision when there are no options.

the message is saying that i should close all applications which might be
using them,
hope to receive a idea to solve this
sincerely

Go into Safe Mode by repeatedly tapping the F8 key as the computer is
starting up. This will get you to the right menu. Use your arrow keys
to navigate to "Safe Mode" and press the Enter key to choose. Log in
with an account that has administrative privileges and now try to
delete the files, one at a time.

Now we're getting somewhere, but what was the exact error message,
please? I don't know of any delete-related message that uses the word
"impossible". (That's not to say one doesn't exist.)
Could it possibly have been a message that the files were too big for
the Recycle Bin? If that's the case, read the message carefully and
you'll see there's a button you can click that removes them anyway.
It works fine, you just don't have the option to get them back from
the Recycle Bin.
If that's not what happened, then please post the EXACT error
message. What might seem like a trivial variation to you can often
make all the difference to being able to diagnose a problem.

Already done above, Stan, more or less :-)
"the message is saying that i should close all applications which might
be using them"
