I have an icon on my desktop (an exe file) and it won't delete because "it is in use by another person or program".

I have ran many spyware scans, and virus scans, and its not detected. Anyone know how i can delete it?
 
Go to start, run, type msconfig, disable all startup items items, reboot, delete.

Open task manager, stop the process or process tree, delete.

Reboot, go in safemode, delete.

Rename the file to whatever you want, delete, or reboot then delete.

See which one works, if any
