How to delete a locked file in Windows?

Posted by Ehsan in Interest, Playground, Resources, Windows

Sometimes when you try to delete a file on Windows it says file cannot be delete as it is used by another program; you must close the program to delete the file. Well, almost all the time you actually know which program to close in order to delete the file (also rename the file). But today when I tried to delete a file (which was not open in any program nor did I use this file for over three months) Windows was showing the message. You cannot really say which program or process is using it. So I downloaded Process Explorer from Microsoft’s site which you can use to see which process or program is using the file you are trying to delete.

After you run the Process Explorer go to “Find” menu and click on “Find Handle or DLL …” (Ctrl+F). Type in the file name (full or partial) you are having trouble deleting or renaming and hit Search. Process Explorer will list all the processes or programs using this file. When I searched for the file I was having problem with it showed that the “Explorer” is using it! So what can I do in that case?

From “Task Manager” if I kill the “Explorer” process I cannot browse to the folder so using “Task Manager” I ran “Command Prompt” and from command line I changed directory to the desired location. Typed the command to delete the file “del filename.ext”. I was able to delete the file and then using “Task Manager” I started “Explorer” again. It was easy but “Process Manager” made it easy to find the process. So many hidden stuff that we have on Windows!

My first attempt to draw with Tablet Pen

Posted by Ehsan in Fun, Interest, Playground

Today I bought a tablet pen, Bamboo, from WACOM (http://www.wacom.com/bambootablet/bamboo.php) to start practicing some design works. In my first attempt I have drawn the Bangladesh flag. Looks like a child work but this is my first try. Hope it will get better soon.

On my way to Québec City

Posted by Ehsan in Personal News

Here I’m, finally, off to Québec City. Tithi and I planned this trip at the very last minute. Today is Friday and we decided to have this trip on Tuesday. Anyway, both of us were looking forward to this day to start our trip. We didn’t have much time to prepare as Tithi has her class to attend and I’m dead busy with office work. But we managed to get it all together. Packed up, woke up early (although I was hopping to have a good sleep over the long weekend).

Yes, it is long weekend in Canada. For Easter we’ve Friday as vacation followed by Saturday and Sunday. Anyway, this is our first trip to somewhere after we got married. Well, that’s not quite right. We traveled to Canada. Anyway, I’ve always heard that Québec City is a beautiful place. I hope the weather will be good. I’m connected to internet with the train’s on-board WiFi service. Just enjoying the views outside and writing this article.

I really needed this break. Both Tithi and I actually. It feels great to finally go out for a long trip. We’ve thought about it many times but never had a chance to do it. Here are some photos taken from the train so far….I’ll keep posting as my journey continues.

LinkMeIn – my new class released

Posted by Ehsan in Interest, Playground, Resources

Today my new class LinkMeIn was released on PHPClasses.org. I have developed this class about couple of months back but did not have enough time to sit and arrange the files to upload on PHPClasses.org. After Grab Yahoo and MySpace Profile Updater classes this is my third class for same type. This class allows any registered LinkedIn.com user to enter their login information and get the contact list. The list is returned as an array or RSS 2.0 format.

I will update LinkMeIn class in future to add more functionalities to it. For the time being if you want to test it, please visit the LinkMeIn Demo location. To report any bug please use PHPClasses.org Support Forum and if you want to contact me directly please go to the Contact section.
