Hi Todd,

If all you want to do is mount a Windows hard drive and delete files,
yes, you possibly can do this with NetBSD, but this is not an intended
case and seems a lot of effort.

In the past, for various reasons, I've used https://www.hirensbootcd.org/
for windows disk manipulation and failing windows disk repair...ymmv

If you want a complete solution to delete software packages in
windows, there are lot's of tools, google is your friend. And if
this is your ask, I would say NetBSD would be a poor choice, but
still may be possible with some months of effort.
