    The action can't be completed because the file or folder is open in windows explorer

    Hi, Muhammed.

    I'm Jen. I'm an independent advisor and would happily help you figure this out.

    I understand you encountered an error while trying to delete a file. It's possible that a service or app is currently using the file causing the error and to help you troubleshoot, I suggest following the steps in the link below.

    Feel free to share how it went.

    Kind regards.

  3. Problem deleting Internet temp Files

    1. Open either Microsoft Internet Explorer or the Windows Control Panel.
    2. In Microsoft Internet Explorer, open the Tools menu and choose the Internet Options menu.
    3. In Control Panel. open the Internet Options list item. In either case, a new window titled "Internet Properties" appears.
    4. In the Temporary Internet Files section of the Internet Properties window, click the "Delete Files..." button. A new "Delete Files" window appears.
    5. In the "Delete Files" window, optionally check the "Delete all offline content" checkbox to also remove temporary files IE has saved for offline viewing. Click OK. A delay of up to several minutes may occur as IE proceeds to delete the temporary files it has cached. If the "Delete all offline content" checkbox is not checked, IE will not delete temporary files associated with offline content; otherwise, all temporary files will be deleted.
    6.Click OK to close the Internet Options window.

    temporary internet files not deleted

    Hi,

    Temporary Internet Files is a folder which contains browser caches of
    Internet Explorer. You cannot delete it by simply using a disk cleanup tool. You can delete it by following these steps:

    • Press Windows + R to open Run.
    • On the General tab, click Delete. . . under
      Browsing history.
    • Check all the data the you wanted to delete and click Delete.

      Note: The process is irreversible. Therefore, it is not possible to recover the deleted Temporary Internet Files.

    Let us know how things go.

    Regards.
