Introduction One of the more frustrating experiences when using a computer is when you want to delete or rename a file or folder in Windows, but get an error stating that the file is in use, open, shared, or locked by a program currently using it. Error Deleting File or Folder You start to shut down every program running on t

message. You're trying to rename (or delete) a folder on your Windows 7 http://kewool.com/2014/02/rename-a-folder-when-windows-claims-its-shared-or-open-in-another-program/ machine, and you get an annoying message saying that some of its subfolders are shared, or the message: "this action can't be completed because the folder or a file in it is open in another program".

Also from Recycle Bin. Update to the most recent .NET Framework. Try to rename oldDirName newDirName from the Command Console (preferably with Administrator privileges, but doesn't really matter in this case). If the command fails ("access denied"), run it in Safe Mode or immediately after the computer boots! (if the latter suggestion worked, this means that the culprit was some nas
