I still get it even without this patch, when running from IDE. Reverting the patch only fixes the issue when running in command line. I did file a bug[1], but this is not the real reason. Probably timing issue. It doesn't reproduce with GnuWin 3.81, but that's ancient, and I need some fixes from later versions. Another thing I've noticed is that make (on Windows/MinGW) leaves behind suspended processes when it is aborted. Maybe one of these processes holds the file and prevents it from being deleted? If you can suggest ways to debug and fix this problem, I'll be thankful. Thanks. - Orgad [1] https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/issues/2592
