The folder or a file in it is open in another program.

Thank you for the suggestion and solution. However, I still do not understand what I should have done to see what was evidently a hidden file in the folder, even though I went through the Security and Permissions drill.

@CyberZues,
I followed your link and installed the so called " LockHunter", but it would not work!! The option to unlock the folder was not available, and when I clicked delete the folder it came back saying it could not be deleted???? I took your advice, and installed a new useless application that does nothing, what in the world????

Thanks, you are right, this was an older post, and I did not mean to hijack it for this, but as I said, I worked it out after all on my own!!
