This is because the account you are using has a grant
of Full Control on the containing folder.
Due to Posix compliance requirements Full Control confers
this "hidden delete" over container contents. To change,
use the adv view on the ACE in the NTFS permissions of
the containing folder, and in that advanced view uncheck
the grant of Delete subfolders and files
