create-react-app does not clean up directory after failed install on Windows

[Timer]

When the CLI fails to create a new application, it should cleanup and delete the directory it had created.

Please help us fix this bug or resolve the test case!

I can take a look at that one (windows user :) )

[johann-sonntagbauer]

first intention was right. On windows the create-react-app process is currently locking the directory and therefor the deletion operation will not perform anything.
Simple fix would be to introduce a process.chdir(path.resolve(root, '..')); before the fs.removeSync(path.join(root));

kinda ugly but works

Not ugly, thanks!
