Can anyone tell me how I can identify what process/executable is locking
a file on a remote fileserver? We are having problems with peoples word
and pst files getting locked and I would like to see what is hanging
onto it.
At this point I don't have admin rights on the file servers and we have
just been asking the fileserver guys to confirm locked and unlock it. If
what they see is the same thing I see when I use computer management and
look in shared folders/open files it does not identify what is holding
the file open.
I wish to identify what is holding it open if that is what is going on?
Or does some app start, open a file,lock it and if the app crashes?
there is no reference to the app just that it is locked by that user??
Thanks for any info.
