Unable to Use 'Desktop' for Installation

[Jason]

I'm on a Windows XP SP 2 Intel Pentium 4 2 ghz.
I'm using FileZilla version 3.1.2 and attempting to upgrade to 3.1.5.
The same problem occurred while attempting to upgrade to 3.1.2.

When I attempted to upgrade to 3.1.2 and now 3.1.5 the client is freezing and the installation does not complete. At the point during the install when it asks where I want to save the installation file, I choose my desktop. When I do this, it places the beginnings of the file on the desktop but the installation fails. As I attempt to delete that incomplete installation file, windows tells me that the file is in use:

---

Error Deleting File or Folder

---

Cannot delete FileZilla_3.1.5_win32-setup: It is being used by another person or program.

Close any programs that might be using the file and try again.

---

OK

---

I've rebooted several times and still receive this message.

I was able to successfully install 3.1.2 if I used the 'My Documents' folder instead of the 'Desktop'. However, the incomplete installation files for 3.1.2 remains on my desktop.

The upgrade problems have been fixed since.

As for the locked files even after a reboot, it means something else on the system is keeping it open, it's not a bug with FileZilla.
