[SOLVED] Kafka - Broker fails because all log dirs have failed

I am attempting a simple kafka config on Windows os. My zookeeper and kafka installations use default configs (except for data and log dir paths). I can start kafka and produce/consume messages without issue; however, when the broker attempts to delete old messages (I set log retention to 100 ms), I get the following error:

    java.nio.file.FileSystemException: C:\Workspace\kafka_2.11-1.1.0\kafka-logs\discrete-topic-0\00000000000000000000.log -> C:\Workspace\kafka_2.11-1.1.0\kafka-logs\discrete-topic-0\00000000000000000000.log.deleted: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

And then...

This seems to be this issue: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6188

kafka version: kafka_2.11-1.1.0 Windows 10 Zookeeper version: 3.4.12

I have a few questions:

Has anyone seen this issue and is there a workaround?
Is running a kafka broker on Windows a viable options at this point? I know it is not supported for Windows and there seem to be multiple critical issues.

Thanks
