But that being said, this brings to mind a question about this... in *nix, when I can't do something like delete a file or directory, or unmount a filesystem and cant find the cause, I can do an lsof and grep for references to the file/directory in question, then work from there to close anything that still has a lock.
It's been a while since a last had this problem. I found a program named "handle.exe" somewhere on microsoft.com. It spits out a listing showing which process has which files open. You can kill the offending processes, and then you can delete your file. I suppose Google can help you find this program.
