Cleanup Failed To Process The Following Paths

Question

My problem is the same as the one here:

Working copy XXX locked and cleanup failed in SVN

However, the solution that seemed to work for everyone there isn't working for me. Trying to checkout to a new folder doesn't work for me. I really don't want to have to delete the project out of the repository and replace it to make it work.

I am using TortoiseSvn. Anyone have any more ideas that weren't suggested in the other question?

Answer 1

svn revert -R *

-R for recursive
* for all changes

Answer 2

I figured it out: I wasn't cleaning up the root directory... when I cleaned up the directory above the one with the issue then it worked.
