I have moved objects from a single file in tablespace to other tablespace.
still that tablespace taking 10G space on windows.
I tried to resize the file but it gives this error

ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE 'D:\APP\ADMINISTRATOR\ORADATA\PDDDB\PDDB_INDX01.DBF'
REISZE 100m

*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01916: keyword ONLINE, OFFLINE, RESIZE, AUTOEXTEND or END/DROP expected

I had to drop tablespace , but by mistake I had dropped the file with OFFLINE DROP.
Then I dropped the tablespace.

Now Is it ok to delete the file on windows, on running database?
