    Try deleting the items in the Rcycled folder on the root of your drive.
    It is hidden, so show hidden files and folders.

    You might have to do it from SafeMode w/ Command Prompt.

    I noticed that ace utilities does that too. and so does window washer. How I fix it is the following.

    I reboot in safe mode and then delete whatever is in there.

    the regular way.
