Hi NG,

on my Windows XP Pro I cannot delete folders, I create on my desktop.
Windows tells me, that there might be a programm still having access on
that folder.
Folder is closed, no program running and i doubt whether there is a
process that might still have access to the folders.
This problem only appears on my desktop-folder.
After a restart, I can delete that folder.

My machine runs day n night so I dont want to restart everytime I want
to delete someting :/

Any idea?
