I am having this problem too. Here is the writeup, so far, as it will appear in my blog:
* * * * *
I was running Windows XP SP3 as a guest in VMware Workstation 7.1 on a Windows 7 host. In WinXP, using Windows Explorer, I selected and copied several filenames and attempted to move those files to another folder. Both the target and source drives were on network drives, in the VMware sense: they were local drives on that computer, but they were not part of the actual virtual machine (VM) as drive C was, so Workstation considered them network drives. When I attempted to paste these files into a folder on that other drive, I got this error message:
Error Moving File or Folder
Cannot move [filename]: It is being used by another person or program.
Close any programs that might be using the file and try again.
These files were not in use anywhere, as far as I could tell. I was using a utility called Unlocker. When this kind of error would occur, Unlocker would pop up, provide relevant information, and offer to help. In this case, Unlocker's message was, "No locking handle found." This was not absolutely the last word on the subject, but I had found Unlocker to be pretty reliable.

Is there a solution to this? Thanks in advance ...
