I have no idea why. I was hoping someone could explain to me why there are several folders inside of a particular folder that I can't delete. The error I get when I try is "The operation cannot be completed because the file is in use." There is no file in the folder though. Is there anyway to get around this. The folder is becoming cluttered.

Thanks so much!

Do you get the same message after rebooting ?

Yes, I reboot every day and I've been trying to delete these folders for a while. No one can seem to help me figure this out

In take case boot into Safe mode and delete from there.

Just after the manufacture's Splash screen hit F8 repeatedly, Safe Mode is one of the options there.
If you get to the windows screen you'll need to start over.

I forgot to mention I'm on a mac. Does that make a difference?

Yep that makes a HUGE difference.
I'm sorry to say, but I have NO idea on a Mac.

It's OK. Thanks for your help.
