Cannot Delete - File in use...

[jashsayani]

Hi Raymond,

I tried to delete a folder in My Docs in XP and It said, Cannot Delete this folder/file, some program might be accessing this file. All the programs are closed and no extra processes are running...

Is there a small tool to Browse for a Folder or File and know which Process is using the file...?

Install Unlocker 1.8.7

Should fix the problem in a jiffy. ;)

No problem, dude. It's an ol' trick I've learned from master Raymond. :D

Really old. Written an article about that 2 and a half years ago.
