Unable to Patch- Error 36

Good Morning,

Woke up this morning to play more of season 8 only to find out that I cant get the patch from last nights maintenance. I keep coming up with this:

Error 36: A file was locked that could not be open for writing.

Not sure how to go about this or what your suggestion is on the matter.

Things that did not work:

Run as Admin
Closing window and re-opening lancher.

There is not ticket for this error.

    Problem Resolved.

    Solution:

    End all Crypic programs in task manager
    Go to the file directory
    Manually delete GameClient.exe.deleteme

    Just so that if anyone else is having this problem this is the solution
