Nasty nuisance today. HELP!
I have a file that isn't in use by anything (task manager processes say so!) and nothing
AFAIK associated with it is running... However, "wholockthis" (an excellent FREE program) says that it is locked by the System - and is also unable to close the System (for obvious reasons) in order to release the hold it has on this pesky file. It also isn't in the queue to burn (I've checked all the CD burning software), etc etc.
I can't delete this file in Safe Mode, either in the Windows Safe or Command Prompt Safe Mode.
I read a trick in Safe Mode was to make a batch command to put whatever file is locked into a loop but the directions were vague. Other than this one example, nothing I have tried has worked.
All I want to do is get rid of this darn file.
Thanks in advance.
