I'm new to Vue. Learned the basics and started experimenting with Vue-CLI. So, i created a test project with webpack-simple template and understood how to create new component and link with core one.

Next, i closed the "npm run dev" with "ctrl + c + Enter". I thought of deleting the test project created and typed "rmdir test-project /s /q" on my Windows machine. But the below message is being updated on cmd.

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

I think this is a bug which is running even after closing the local server. Please, let me know what's the issue. I want to learn more.

Hi, thanks for your interest but Github issues are for bug reports and feature requests only. You can ask questions on the forum, the Discord server, gitter or StackOverflow.


You probably just left one of the files open on an editor, or the console on the directory

I'm clear on what I said. I have closed the editor and respective tab on my browser. After that I noticed the issue on CMD. So, I posted the issue.
