File opened in another folder cannot be renamed

1. Open windows explorer afresh
2. Nagiviate to the folder is I want to rename that is on the server.
3. Windows says a file is opened in another window and cannot rename.

Is there a solution to this problem?

I tried these:

Method 1:

When you have trouble in opening the file from the client computer, I would suggest you to open the file directly from Server computer and check if you get the same error there as well.

Method 2:

If you don’t receive the same error on server machine, then I would suggest you to place the client computer in clean boot state and then try to open the file.

You can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This kind of startup is known as a "clean boot." A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

Note: After checking in clean boot, follow step: 3 from the article to reset the computer to normal boot.

Method 3:

Perform System File Check to fix the corrupted system files on client computer and then try to open the file.

Note: It may ask for Windows DVD to fix and to enable SFC to make more than minor repairs. Some files saved on your computer might get deleted when fixing corrupted files.
