The Windows file system is responding to the way both Adobe and LP opened the file. LP maybe opens it as New Write with Exclusive Control after issuing a Delete request. I know Adobe opens it as Read/Share, but the file being opened at all would conflict with another program trying to delete it, as I think delete always implies requiring exclusive control over the file. So LP is unable to delete the old file because it's in use.
