Python 2.7 easy_install - the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process error

Using Python I am trying to install a library called yappi through easy_install. However I am getting this error below on Windows 7 Command Shell:

enter image description here

I explored alternative installations. I tried previously 'pip install yappi' but this didn't work due to a separate error (can't build wheel) which is a separate question.

Try downloading the appropriate wheel from here.

Then use pip install [package].
