I sometimes have situations where QM is the application that has a "hold" on a folder after the script successfully ended.
I found out about this when using unlocker didn't see any applications that has a lock on the folder or when restarting the "explorer.exe" or deleting the thumbnails file or by trying:
Windows + R >> “resmon.exe” >> ‘CPU’ >> ‘Associated handles’.
I still couldn't find any way by getting the folder unlocked, finally closing QM did the trick.
My question:
Is there a way to unlock/release files/folders locked by QM at the end of an QM script?
Or a command that releases a QM locked files/folders.
(I am not referring to locks on certain system/QM internal related files/folders)
For example for a script I use: d:\testfolder which the script uses but after the script is done the folder is not released.
(and it does not show up in 'unlocker', sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't)
From this topic: www.quickmacros.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=3743 it is stated that qm cannot delete or unlock locked files.
I was hoping there might be a way to force unlock QM locked items (because maybe QM could track what it's "holding"?)
Maybe this issue is to time consuming or to complex to resolve, in that case then just skip it.
Thanks any way!
