You can clear all connections to that file which would require admin rights.
Or try renaming it and copying the new file in it place. As soon as the
process connecting to that closes the backup file will be available to be
deleted.
I do this to update applications when necessary. I know it is possible if
only a user process is accessing the file. I haven't tested this on files
being used as services. I question these because I remember we use to have
issues closing connections on these.

Try inuse.exe

If this works let me know, I came across it but have had no reason to use
it.
Would like to know how it works out for you

I have a script that runs that is used to update a file on a network share.
I'm running into a problem when this file is being accessed. The
information in the file is read-only, so I don't care if it's open when
replacing the files, except that it halts the script. How can I force the
copy to take place even if the file is open? The creditials being used
doesn't/can't have domain admin rights or admin rights on the server where
that the share is located on. Is this even possible? Thanks in advance.
Brian
