So.. it's a bit hard to explain the issue in a single sentence, so I'll just list the step that lead me there:
* make a new document (it was in calc for me, but I don't think this matters)
* write anything to it (but still keep it temporary, i.e. don't save anything)
* force the pc off (or I guess killing the soffice processes could do it as well)
* open a pre-existing document (it was a .doc for me, but again I don't think it matters)
* the document recovery window should pop up and ask you if you want to try saving the old work 
* say yes and after it has opened for good, close the other document
* you will still be unable to delete the folder the later is in, because the rescued document has an handle opened on that completely foreign folder

I could not reproduce with:

Version: 7.5.5.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: ca8fe7424262805f223b9a2334bc7181abbcbf5e
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

Can you please update to 7.5 and test again?
In you steps, when you say "the later", you mean the pre-existing document (not the recovered document)?
