How does one figure out what process locked a file using c#?

How do I find out which process is locking a file using .NET?

Hi,

i try to get the name of the process wich locks a file (not only a dll module, any file). For example if process "Process A" opens a file stream on "C:\temp\test.txt" this should be detected (if i try to delete the file in windows explorer it is locked till the process is killed).

There are several examples on Stackoverflow like: How does one figure out what process locked a file using c#?

Determine which process (b)locks a file, programma开发者_Go百科tically (under Windows >= XP)

I tryed the examples above, but none of them works.

I also read somethink about the Win32 API function NtQuerySystemInformation, but i don't know how how to use it. Couldn't find any PInvoke code for it.

I use Process Explorer from SysInternals (It doesn't not require installation, it's a single exe).

1. Ctrl+F (Find handle or dll)
2. Type the name of the locked file

As already mentioned in the comment (by bzlm and Richard), handle.exe should work for you.
