>>The problem was that a file got locked by the server or some process that I am not aware of. So the solution to unlock the file is as following:
>>- On the server itself, right-click on the "my computer" icon and select "Manage".
>>- Under System Tools-Shared Folders you'll see "Open Files".
>>- Click on "Open Files" to see all the files left open.
>>- Expand the "open file" column so you can see the full path.
>>- Scroll to the open files in question and highlight them and then right-click on them.
>>- Select "Close open file"

Yes, I saw some messages online about this tool. But this is a customer server. If I install anything I am liable for any problem they may have. So I prefer to work with a hammer and chisel :). Thanks.
