folder cannot be deleted because in use by other process

Hello, newsgroup!

I am using WindowsXP Pro in a Windows server domain. Always when I try to
re-organize my folders the following very annoying behavior occurs: I try to
delete or move a folder. Windows XP refuses to do so because the folder is
still used by another process. Maybe this is because I clicked at the folder
before, but there are definitely no programs open, which currently use this
folder. Of course I can use shareware tools to identify the process and the
particular handle and abort it. But when I do this every other time I need
to delete or move a folder, this is VERY annoying. Is there no other way?

Greetings

Marc
