----------------------------------

             Summary: [R] Permission error on Windows when deleting file in dataset
                 Key: ARROW-16421
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16421
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: R
    Affects Versions: 7.0.0
            Reporter: Will Jones
            Assignee: Will Jones


On Windows this fails: 
{code:r}
library(arrow)

write_dataset(iris, "test_dataset")

con <- open_dataset("test_dataset") |> to_duckdb()

file.remove("test_dataset/part-0.parquet")
#> Warning in file.remove("test_dataset/part-0.parquet"): cannot remove file
#> 'test_dataset/part-0.parquet', reason 'Permission denied'
#> [1] FALSE
{code}

But on MacOS it does not:

{code:R}
library(arrow)

write_dataset(iris, "test_dataset")

con <- open_dataset("test_dataset") |> to_duckdb()

file.remove("test_dataset/part-0.parquet")
#> [1] TRUE
{code}
