os.removedirs not working

[Golawala, Moiz M (GE Infrastructure)]

Hi All, 

I have a small program that where I am using os.removedirs('C:\\someDir') on windows. I get the error that the directory is not empty. Sure there are sub-directories under it and all file and directories are deletable(nothing is locked by the system) and there are no permission issues either. Can someone please tell me if I am using the os.removedirs() correctly?
