By making sure you have permission to do the renaming.

What are the permissions on the files? And who owns them?

I don't do any Windows development, so correct me if I'm wrong, but I
think this error could happen if the file is in use as well. Ensure the
file you are trying to mv (rename) is not open by any other application.
