‘Cannot delete Folder: It’s being used by another person or program. ’ even though it’s not!
‘The file name(s) would be too long for the destination folder.’

If you’re a frequent Windows user you may have encountered one of these really irritating errors at least three times in your Windows lifetime. So how do you get these errors out of the way? It’s really easy! Just get yourself the Long Path Tool.
What is it?
The Long Path Tool is the simplest or only the best tool you could use to delete, unlock, copy, re-name ‘path too long folders and files’. The Long Path Tool is a more efficient and systematic file management software than the ordinary Windows Explorer, FAR file or other file management utility tools out on the market, with an upper hand on being intuitive and very easy to use.
And the Long Path Tool benefits…?
If your computer burps out a ‘Destination path too long,’ or ‘Windows Delete Path too long’ or even this ‘file could not be accessed’, it’s simply because your Windows Explorer or FAR is finding problems copying, deleting or renaming the path name because it’s longer than 256 characters – sometimes the file directory is just not recognized hence the need for a third party utility tool. The Long Path Tool effectively handles pathnames way beyond the 256 mark providing up to 32,000 characters up to Windows’ internal limit

it can close the programs that’s using it.
These benefits only prove that this program is robust and addresses the simple looking but very complex issues a user may face while working off their Windows system.
