I have recently been unable to delete certain PSD’s from my computer. I get the error message: Cannot delete XXX.psd: it is being used by another person or program. I don’t have any programs open. I can batch save 30 or so images as psd’s and only 2 or 3 will be undeletable. There is nothing different about these files than the others. It just seems to happen to random files. Have about 4 files that were created from Photoshop CS2 and now 1 of about 10 created from Lightroom that won’t delete so there’s really no pattern. Any advice or suggestions would be apreciated.
