Process Explorer can be obtained from http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/procexp.shtml You run it and then use the search to search for part of the file name. Note that there are two different searches: "Handle or type substring" and "DLL substring". This is controlled by a button on the toolbar. Search both ways. You should find the process that has the file open. You might need to search for the directory name also. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
