Comment (by Vort):

 Looks like in Windows, `unlink` actually deletes file:
 https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa273396(v=vs.60).aspx

 There are something similar to `unlink` from Unix in NTFS:
 https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/49306
 But I'm not sure about it.

 Concerning architecture:
 Tor unlinks file just to free name or its goal is to free disk space?
 What is the reason to have exactly 256 names, but gigabytes of used space?

 Sadly, I don't completely understand what happening here.
