Because the file is open in the system.

Hello,

I downloaded a torrent that I "fed to Utorrent." So far, no problems. I ended up with an .iso file that I mounted on a drive. When I try to run the application, I get an error message from Avast saying it contains a virus. I then tried to delete the .iso file, but an error message appears: Cannot delete because the file is open in system. I then ejected the disk, but the same message appears when I try to delete it again.
I downloaded Eraser, but the software can't delete it, and Unlocker won't launch for me either. The command prompt also can't delete it.

Any ideas????

Configuration: Windows 7 / Firefox 13.0.1

Fact: ctrl + alt + delete
Click on Task Manager, go to Processes, and find the Utorrent process.
Double click on it and click on End Task.

I didn't test it, sorry, because at the same time I found the solution. Thanks anyway :)

You just need to go to the explorer and where your drives are (including the virtual one), right-click and eject!! The .iso file can now be deleted.
