Can you delete these from the command line via the "rd /s/q" command?

I can't imagine how you're able to create a folder, but not be able to
delete it in Windows. However, it may be possible that some Window
process (maybe Windows Explorer itself) has a directory of file that
it thinks is open.

You may have to reboot your system to kill whatever process is holding
that file or directory open and then open up a command line prompt and
delete via the "rd /s/q" command. You can see that via the Task
Manager.
