📎 AI Summary:
The original poster is experiencing difficulty deleting applications from their Downloads folder, as Windows reports the files are still open, despite no visible processes in Task Manager. They attempted to use the program Unlocker, but the setup wouldn't run. Later, they resolved the issue by ending Windows Explorer in Task Manager and manually shutting down the computer, which allowed them to delete the files successfully. The overall sentiment is one of troubleshooting and eventual resolution.

I have downloaded some applications, and it won't allow me to delete them (it keeps saying the file is open in that application--I checked task manager, and there's nothing there). I read that a program called Unlocker can help, but when I try to run the setup, nothing happens. This is happening for all applications in my Download folder.

Well, I got it working again. I had to go into Task Manager and end Windows Explorer, then manually shut the computer down. Everything's fine now.
