Default Cannot Delete file in Vista

This solved it for me perfectly, it was driving me crazy, couldn't move any
files after playing them in media player. Thanks

I may have found 1 solution for this.

It turns out since i formatted my computer the other night, that
Windows Media player keeps anything that i've opened in it. So when i
open a video file it stays open even after closing Windows media player.
I have to actually go into it, go to play list and remove it in play
list.

Once i've done that, The files will move, delete fine.

Please check Windows Media player first and then see if that resolves
the problem.
