Can't delete directory under Windows 7

I want to delete a directory under Windows 7 from Explorer, but every time I do so I get an error window with the message "Could not find this item" and "This is no longer located in ...".


The file is not in use, I can change into the directory (it's empty), reboot doesn't help, clicking "Try again" doesn't help, deleting from CMD.EXE doesn't work. I cannot rename it as well.


What can I do to delete the directory?
