What type of folders are these? Have you run the Office Diagnostics?

Default Outlook 2007 - Cant delete folders

I am at a loss then as I have not seen this problem with the beta. I have
seen folks not be able to close a .pst folder but not sub-folders.

Have you tried a new mail profile? Configure it to use your same .pst file.
I would not run scanpst.exe against it as there are known problems with the
tool and Outlook 2007.
