This smells like a Windows issue. It is possible that something in your JVM is still holding onto the index directory (for example, FSDirectory), and Winblows is not letting you remove the directory. I bet this will work if you exit the JVM and run java.io.file.delete() without calling Lucene. Sorry, my Windows + Lucene experience is limited.
