I guess This is sure going to work out for you.
Download the Software.

Follow the below steps after downloading it:-

Simply right click the folder or file which was showing an error message and select Unlocker.
If the folder or file is locked, a window listing of lockers will appear.
Simply click Unlock All and you are done.
Restart you PC.
