As mentioned by Andrew, the application that you use to rename or delete
files may be keeping an open handle on the files or folders. Tools like
OH.exe, Handle or Process Explorer can reveal the handles.
Process Explorer for Windows v10.21
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/ProcessExplorer.mspx
Handle v3.20
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/ProcessesAndThreads/Handle.mspx
Open Handles (oh.exe): This command-line tool shows the handles of all
open windows. The tool can also be used to show only information that
relates to a specific process, object type, or object name. To download
this tool, click the following link:

just run the DST patch. Perhaps this helps time
stamps. My news agent may have a mind of its own.
Running SysInternal's Process Explorer reveals no
handles.
Folders whose contents are emptied/transferred can
still not be deleted, until reboot.
I disabled some Seagate acronis disk imaging tools
that were hovering in the background, without
effect. Open processes are listed below.
