@Willsparker - I wonder if we're seeing a cygwin bug here as well. How old are the Cygwins on those machines?

ref: #1396

@karianna I think it's due to leftover processes. When I try and delete it using file explorer (as Admin), I get this:

When I go through resource monitor, I can see there's still some java processes running on it:

Once I end the Java processes manually, I'm able to delete the file.

The version this machine is running (according to uname -r in the Cygwin terminal) is 3.1.5(0.340/5/3), which I believe is the latest version of cygwin (https://www.cygwin.com/)

I suppose it could be a Cygwin issue, however, Jenkins is meant to have a way of auto killing any process that is spawned within a job (see https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/ProcessTreeKiller ), so unless Cygwin escapes that somehow, this shouldn't happen.. :/

I'm going to close this issue as the workspace has been cleared now - We have #1396 to track how to possibly fix it :-)
