By default, Windows will show you a thumbnail preview on the left pane of the open window. This is what is causing the file to be open, and thus, not erasable.

You can switch folders views (Tools | Folder Options), try viewing Details (View | List), or delete from the command line. These methods won't hold the file open so it'll be easily deleted.
