Kodi was running, while you tried to change/delete the file? In that case I suppose it would save the file from memory to disk on shutdown...
In case you don't want to stop the Kodi process and then change the file, have you tried shutting the Rpi down, removing the memory card/flashdisk and modifying the file via different computer?
Don't forget to make backup of the file, just in case...

Hi, thanks for answer. Will I be able to access the .kodi/userdata on Windows without installing additional software?

No. But is really not needed.
Via ssh do:
systemctl stop kodi
# edit/delete anything needed
systemctl start kodi mglae You've been faster, just as I was writing basically the same answer 
skullmonkey You are welcome. Just don't forget to make backup of the file (or whole installation, for that matter), you never know. For example cp ./profiles.xml ./profiles.xml_bak from within the directory containing the profiles.xml file will give you a chance of recovery in case something goes awfully wrong...
