Not able to delete a file in Fusion 360

[Aadithya01]

I have been facing this dialogue box for a while . Can anyone tell me how to delete a file when it shows the document is in use . Dont know why it is showing that the document is in use even when I am not using it

The various Autodesk support sites are all incorrect on how to delete a file that says it cannot be opened because it is "in use". However, the suggestion to create a new folder and then move it to the new folder and then delete the folder does indeed work. Signing out and back in to Fusion did not work. Deleting through the web server did not work. Making a change and then exiting and trying to delete the file did not work. It would help if Autodesk could update its support pages to reflect the only correct suggestion given by this forum.

I have the same issue, cannot delete the files. My so called "Trash Bin Folder" is getting full already...

Hughes Tooling is correct. What he said will work. It was driving me nuts. I'm so glad I saw his solution.
