Best Answer

The reason for this error is that the file which you are deleting is used by some program on your computer. If you want to still delete it you can download a software called UNLOCKER

See related links.

After downloading and installing that right click on that file which you want to delete and then select unlocker from the menu.

Then you will see the processes which the file is used by.

You can either Kill Process or Unlock or Unlock All

Then you can delete it :-)

Can you remove a warning from a user's profile?

No, you cannot; a warning can be deleted from the message board, but it is still there in theory. It is planned to have the ability for Community Assistants to be able to remove them entirely in the future. A simple apology is usually all that is required; deleting the warning from the message board means it is no longer viewable to non-Supervisors.
