   Ok, I'm running Vista 64-bit. I'm trying to delete a file, but I get a message that says that the file is already open. So I check the Task Manager and looked under the list of processes to disable it, but I can't find it anywhere. How do I end the process so I can delete this file?

   Process Explorer can help you find the process that's using the file, treat it with respect, it's very powerful.

   Hi
   
   Please stick to one thread on a support topic as having multiple ones wastes the time of those offering you support, you need to finish off the first topic on a subject.
