Error when saving and deleting Files

[Kelleigh_Kincaid@adobeforums.com]

I get an error when I try to delete certain files. It says. "Cannot delete files because it is being used by another program". Same thing when I try to save files. Is there a setting in Illustrator that is off? Thanks!

It's a typical Windows issue. I've found it happens when you have a
explorer window in thumbnails view. The file handle gets locked by
explorer.exe process. Use another view while editing images.
