It has many other flavors:

Cannot delete file: Access is denied
There has been a sharing violation.
The source or destination file may be in use.
The file is in use by another program or user.
Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use.

Unlocker is the solution!

1. Simply right click the folder or file and select Unlocker



2. If the folder or file is locked, a window listing of lockers will appear



3. Simply click Unlock All and you are done!

i use both these free tools and they are brilliant

Nice, I hate bugs in the works and usually go after trojan DLers manually this will save me about 3 steps. Why I do that you may ask, answer because I like to feed them to Hiedi Eraser.

Been using Unlocker for quite some time and I have to agree with candycane amazing and easy to use program.

i love catching bugs too PH8AL hates to format thats last resort

Cool, looks a sweet util.

I have frequently become piXXXX Xff, ahem, annoyed by such errors, now I have an easy solution.

Thanks

Hey thanks - I keep getting bugged by this every now and then and am then forced to reboot. This will hopefully end my worries!
