so, why would you want to do that?... well the file is probably in use by an application or service that you can't seem to find (often because of maleware or a virus).
so this is where a free tool by malware bytes comes in - it is called FileAssassin.
It allows you to unlock any file in use, without the reboot.
- Launch the application, and pick the file you want to remove:
- Select your options (Notice it can delete on reboot too)
- After you pick your file and options - execute. Now your file is unlocked, without a reboot.
It is free for commercial and personal use - so its another great tool to add to that flash drive that you can carry around :)
