Yes, that fixes the problem on emacs-29. The problem still exists on
master (which does not yet have your patch), so all looks good.

Your commit message said:

  Fix spurious errors on Windows when deleting temporary *.eln files

I think that is a mischaracterisation: the errors are not spurious, and
are documented by Microsoft. The behaviour is different to POSIX, but
that makes it different, not spurious.
