How to close an file in an running process from another
process?
For example:
There are two running processes,named procIn and
procFrom. A file
named needCloseFile was opened in procIn. Now I want to
close the
needCloseFile from procFrom by programming,but left
procIn running normally.
What can I do???
Thx for your reply!!

What is the motive for that? I guest that would you like to open the file
from procFrom, and the system says it's begin used by other process, no? if
this is the case you can share the file between the 2 processes.

The simple answer is - you can't close a file you don't own, only the
process that has opened the file can close it.

process that has opened the file can close it.
but what does the software unlocker do after press the unlock button ?
It makes the file in using can be delete or move. how does it realize
this function???

Well, "Unlockers" are tools that need high privileges (SeDebugPrivile ge) to
run and inject DLL's into the external process, they attach a filesystem
driver to delete the file under the other process feet.
Not something you can't (and should) do in managed code.

I'm trying to access a text file that was created by another process but I
keep getting the contents of the file before the external process modified
it.
I believe the previous process left it open and doesn't let me access it.
Is it possible for me to close the file before using in order to make sure
that I have complete access?
Even if it's not open, I'd like to make sure.
Thanks.

I'm opening a cmd window to run an ftp process. It's easy enough to close the
process (.close()), but the cmd window won't close unless I go out to the
window and type 'quit'.
How can I send a request to the cmd window to close?
Here's the code snippet that I'm using to make the call:
string strArg = "/c ftp.exe -v -n -s:" + strFile + " " + strHost + " > " +

Hi,
I've been having a problem with C++ Windows Forms apps not "ending"
when you close the form window. I've searched about this problem all
over the place and most searches have lead me to believe that this has
to do with unreleased form component events or event handlers.
I'm comparatively new to .net and windows forms, in the sense that
though I've been using them for over 2 years now, it's been rather

Hi,
Both way works, I'd just ask some experts which way is better?
My application creates a log file daily.
Now each time when I write a log, I will open the file and append to the
end. Ocz, if the file is not exist(e.g. another day), it will creates the
file first.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
