• Leon Katsnelson Files locked by unknown programs or services

  Sometimes when you run a program in XP (seemed like less of a problem in Win2K) certain files just get locked, and cannot be modified or deleted.

  Hi, I have a state machine workflow with a state that uses the HandleExternalActivity activity. I have set it up to use an event in my custom interface.
