Java delete folder stil exists

I have a block of code:

List<String> unusedFolders = new ArrayList<String>();

for (int i = 0; i < unusedFolders.size(); i++) {
    File dirDate = new File(unusedFolders.get(i));

    String[] files = dirDate.list();

    for(String f: files) {
        File file = new File(dirDate.getPath(),f);
        file.delete();
    }

    dirDate.delete();
    //dirDate.deleteOnExit();
    }

The list "unusedFolder" has values like:

C:\opt\transmission\tejas\transform\inv\20140927
C:\opt\transmission\tejas\transform\inv\20140928
C:\opt\transmission\tejas\transform\inv\20140929

It ran with no errors in eclipse but when I check in the windows explorer, the folders are still there and when I try to access it (click). It prompts:

C:\opt\transmission\tejas\transform\inv\20140927 is not accessible. Access is Denied.

Now, I can't even delete it manually. Anyone has an idea? thank you.
