Free software "WhoLockMe" that knows which software is locking files

If you decide to delete the file, somehow an error like "sharing violation" comes up and there is no way I can not help but surely there should be one or twice the troubled experience.

It is almost like this. There are cases where more amazing things are written.


It is mostly caused by one of the currently running software being open or accessing the file, or because only the process remains as a zombie, so be sure to quit it properly It will be possible to delete, move and rename every now and then.

If you are a master of intelligent windows, you instinctively track which software is locking the file with the feeling "Mumu!" But it is impossible for a general user.

So useful is "WhoLockMe" free software.
