FreeFile will free a file by finding the process
that holds the lock, and allow you to terminate it.

Requires the .Net Framework! Download it at:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/downloads/list/netdevframework.asp

When you try to delete, remove or rename files or folders you
may get the following error messages:

Cannot delete file: Access is denied.
There has been a sharing violation.
The source or destination file may be in use.
The file is in use by another program or user.
Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the
file is not currently in use.

This often indicates that the file has been locked by a process
- but what process? Use FreeFile to find the process and free
your file by terminating the process.
