When the installation completes, close the installer. Right-click the folder you want to delete. You will see a new option called Unlocker. Click this option. It will open an Unlocker window. It will show you whether the file or folder is locked by a process. If it is, Unlocker will show you the list of all such processes. Choose Unlock All or any other option as needed. Unlocking will allow you to delete the file or folder easily.
