Hi, the issue is with Windows putting locks on files/folders. For instance if you have a file explorer opened on the folder being updated (e.g. the docs folder), it'll prevent other programs from modifying the files/folders.
If you have problem using it from eclipse you can always use SDK/tools/android.bat which provide you with the same UI. Which version of Eclipse are you using? I'll double-check that Eclipse doesn't open/lock some files in the documentation.
