    When I use Disk Cleanup, I have a folder that is locked. How do i unlock it?


    I have a folder in Disk Cleanup that has 27mb of data I want to delete. It has a "locked" icon on it and is probably why I can't get rid of the 27mb. It's in Temp Internet files. When I try to view files, it says the file is empty, but the cleanup says it has 27mb. The IE cache is locked. How do i unlock it?
