Cannot delete empty folder

[rufford155]

I have an empty folder on my desktop that I cannot delete because windows thinks a file in it is being used - there are no files in it !
And windows says the same even if I close all programs.
Any suggestions please how to proceed to delete it ?

Hello Rufford,

If you like, you can see if the free programs Unlocker or FileASSASSIN may be able to delete it for you.

Many thanks Brink - Iobit Unlocker worked easily.
It was Google Backup & Sync locking the folder.

You're most welcome. I'm glad you got it sorted.
