Question: I'm dealing with a repeating situtation where an app creates a file, then holds onto it even though it's closed. Without going deeply into unnecessary details - this is a app development situation - my app creates the file - while i'm debugging it I want to be to manually delete it from the file system. But Explorer refuses with the standard 'File in Use by another process'.

How do I clear the condition short of rebooting? - How do I identify and kill the process in question?

1) Click Start->Run->CMD
2) Leave the command window open
3) Open task manager (Click Start->Run->Taskmgr)
4) Locate the Explorer process from the Processes tab
5) Right-click Explorer and End Process
6) Back in the command window, navigate to where the file is located
i.e, if the file is on your desktop, the command window should be open at
C:\Documents and Settings\<Username>

Simply type
CD Desktop <Enter>

7) Now try del filename.ext
(replacing with the actual filename)

8) If it works, simply type
explorer
to get it loaded back...
