Be sure that the file was closed.

closed? Does the file have to be opened first?

Check that you are referring to the same path as the filesystem module is:
This module provides access to files in specific places:
The root folder of the .love archive (or source directory)
The root folder of the game's save directory.
The folder containing the game's .love archive (or source directory), but only if specific conditions are met.

when I create the file, it automatically put it in appdata, so remove doesn't go there automatically?
