MSCOMCTL.OCX error while installing Norton Utilities 14.5 on Windows XP SP3

Hello,

 

I stumbled on the following error while installing Norton Utilities 14.5 on Windows XP SP3:

 

"C:\WINDOWS\system32\MSCOMCTL.OCX

An error occurred while trying to replace the existing file:

DeleteFile failed; code 32.

The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process."

 

I successfully installed Norton Internet Security 2010 and Norton Ghost 15.0 just minutes before this problem occurred with Norton Utilities 14.5. I tried to restart the computer in hopes of stopping whatever process was using the mentioned file, but the error kept popping up.

 

I would be grateful for advice on how to get past this issue!

 

Regards,

Bartek
