Unable to delete folders

There are certain folders in my hdd that I am unable to delete. When i click on delete I get the deleting window and it keeps showing deleting for hours together.
I tried to delete it using dos commands but it was useless. Incidentally all these flders were in my torrent download location. I have a windows 7 enterprise x86 os. Do I need to post more information? (Forgive me If I have broken any rules. I am new to this forum. TIA).

Welcome here!

You can try unlocker, it worked well for me in similar cases.
Download Unlocker 1.9.1 - FileHippo.com

This topic would fit better in the general discussions, but don't mind it
