Trouble Deleting Stuff

Lately, I've been having trouble deleting stuff. For example, I have an
empty folder on my D drive that I want to get rid of but when I try I get
the following error message: "Cannot remove folder xxxxxx: It is being used
by another person or program. Close any programs that might be using the
file and try again".

I tried deleting it first thing after I have switched on my PC but I get the
same message. This has happened 2 or 3 times over the past week with other
stuff and I'm beginning to think this might become a big problem in the
future.

If anyone can help with this matter I would really appreciate it.

Cheers.
