Who is locking that file?
Find out with Unlocker. Have you ever seen a message that a file is in use by another process and cannot be deleted? Unlocker integrates in explorer and appears on the context menu on a file or a folder. When selected it shows you a list of processes that have opened the file and gives you a choice to unlock the file (i.e. closing the file handle), killing the process(es) or just quit with no action. You can just see which program is locking the file (or a folder) and close it yourself.
Another interesting option it gives is to copy,rename or even delete the locked file, which is very useful if you need to look at a file, opened by some process (or deleting a spyware).
