I tried it with a word document and it deletes fine while previewing. It only seems to happen with pdf files. Using Windows Server 2016 Standard - does anyone have a solution yet?

I have tried to go in adobe security preferences and disable enhanced security.

    When you have the "Preview" turned on in File Explorer/Finder the OS opens the PDF and displays the preview jpeg of the PDF. The file is therefore considered open the the OS. You need to turn of the "Preview" option.
