The Process Cannot Access The File 'FILENAME' Because It Is Being Used By Another Process - Error

Aug 31, 2009

How can i access a file through FileStream which is being used by a window service. Actually i am trying to access a file which is also being used by our window service. I need to read data from this file. I am using below code but also getting following error:

Code:
Dim fs1 As IO.FileStream = New IO.FileStream(psPath, IO.FileMode.Open, IO.FileAccess.Read, IO.FileShare.Read)
Dim sr As IO.StreamReader = New IO.StreamReader(fs1)
sData = sr.ReadToEnd

Error: The process cannot access the file 'FILENAME' because it is being used by another process.

I tried changing FileShare.Read parameter to FileShare.None but it didn't work out. I also read below post which says that it is not possible but i think there is a way to read it like if you open a file through Firefox but still window service is accessing it.

When I load my solution and compile it after first starting the IDE, everything works as expected. After changing source and recompiling, I get the following compile error:

VS 2010 Launching New Process & Detecting If That Process Has An Error Message

Nov 19, 2011

I am working on a small VB application that listens for commands sent from an Android app.

One of the functions is to extract an archive. I am familiar with how to listen for the unrar process to finish, so I can display a progressdialog on the phone while the extraction is happening, and clear it as soon as it's done.

BUT ... if there is an error/alert from WinRAR, WaitForExit() never gets called because WinRAR is still sitting there open until I click "OK" on the MsgBox.

For Example ... if you try to extract a file that is not actually an archive... an alert will pop up saying "No Archives Found", and basically everything is halted on the VB app and the Android app, and the Android app just sits on a progressdialog saying "extracting..." until you manually hit "OK" on the computer.

As you can imagine, this is a problem if the whole point of your app is to NOT have to go over to the computer.

So... I am wondering if there is something similar to WaitForExit() that will wait for an error and allow me to close out the alert and let the process end.

Here's my Sub for the UnRar command:

Private Sub UnRar(ByVal WorkingDirectory As String, ByVal filepath As String)
Dim objRegKey As RegistryKey
objRegKey = Registry.ClassesRoot.OpenSubKey("WinRARShellOpenCommand")

The Process Cannot Access The File 'C:UsersJoshuaDocumentsTest1.txt' Because It Is Being Used By Another Process

Dec 4, 2011

The process cannot access the file 'C:UsersJoshuaDocumentsTest1.txt' because it is being used by another process.Now the Problem. When i step through my code, it will do as intended, e.g. clear all contents of test1.txt. when i run it at run time it throws this error. The reason for it throwing an error is the text file is reading string, int, string, and the txt file has a string including in the int part, so i'm making it so you can empty a corrupt file.

VS 2005 Windows Services - Process Is Listed As A SYSTEM Process Rather Than A Process Under User Name

Jun 4, 2009

I have written a windows service that is meant to launch a notepad when a specific action happens. The problem i have is that even though the service launches notepad, the actual notepad it self is NOT visible. I know that it has been launced because i can see the process in the task manager. By the way the process is listed as a SYSTEM process rather than a process under my user name (i believe that is because my process is a "LocalSystem" one).

"The Process Cannot Access The File '" Because It Is Being Used By Another Process" Error

Aug 10, 2010

I have made a small program which loads a file into a listview when somebody presses the load button on the form. The user can also put information in the listview by filling in some textboxes and press on the add button.So now the weird thing is that if the user loads an empty file ( With no information in it ) and presses load on the form and after that tries to add information to the file you get a "The process cannot access the file '" because it is being used by another process" error.

The code for the load button is as followed: ( So here accountfile 2 is loaded )

VS 2010 Process Cannot Access The File Error?

May 17, 2012

I have some coding which edits my text file and saves two versions, the first version removes all multiple space with one space and saves it as a text file and the second replaces the spaces with a comma and saves it as a csv file. The problem I have is however later on when I run other code using the saved text and csv files, it looks like the processes are in use. I get the following error:

The process cannot access the file 'Path' because it is being used by another process.My actual coding:

Private OpenFileName As String = IO.Path.Combine(Application.StartupPath, "TextFile1.txt")
Private SaveFileName As String = IO.Path.Combine(Application.StartupPath, "TextFile2.txt")
Private SaveFileName2 As String = IO.Path.Combine(Application.StartupPath, "TextFile3.csv")

Folder-monitoring Windows Service Gets "process Cannot Access The File Because It Is Being Used By Another Process"

May 26, 2009

I have created a Windows service in VS 2005 that monitors a folder for XML files, reads some data elements from the XML using XmlDocument, then copies the files to another location. I find that when I drop 2 or more XML files into the folder simultaneously, it processes them with no problems, but when I drop the same files into the folder one at a time, I will get an error on the second file: "The process cannot access the file <my file> because it is being used by another process." If I stop my service, restart it, and drop the second file into the folder again, it works the second time. I am confident that no other program is accessing this file at the same time as my service. My impression is that the processing of file # 1 is somehow not releasing all of the resources, leading to the processing of file # 2 mistakenly thinking that it can't access that second file.

How To Get Path Of Process Under Different User

Jul 18, 2011

I'm writing a program that checks processes (when they start), and kills any processes that aren't acceptable. My program is mostly done, but I only just ran into a problem: when I try to get the path (one of the criteria) of a process running under a different user, (MainModule.FileName) I get an exception:

System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception occurred
ErrorCode=-2147467259
Message="Access is denied"
NativeErrorCode=5
Source="System"
[Code] .....

Now, the program doing the checking is running with complete administrator privileges, so I can pretty much wrangle any permission I need. How can I obtain the path of the process? (I can use WMI, by the way, I've already used it for another part of this).

How To Get Full Path Of Running Process

May 8, 2010

Im working on a Dll Injector. But that is not my problem. I am using a picturebox to display the icon of a running process. E.g. If google chrome is running. The picturebox should display the icon of google chrome.

I can extract the icon to my picturebox only if I know the full path of the process. That API was easily found and works very well.

But know I want my application to get the full path of a running process automatically as soon as I order it.Like in a textbox is write: chrome.exe, and press the button next to it. What do I need to write in the button to get the full path of that running process.(of course only if its running, I if its not running I dont want anything to happned)

Passes The Path Of A File To The Process?

Jun 10, 2011

I have a fairly simple piece of code for viewing files System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(tFileInfo.FullName

Basically passes the path of a file to the process and let Windows deal with how to open it. Have also tried Dim myProcess As New System.Diagnostics.Process

[Code]...

Works beautifully on my machine, but on three others i have tested it on, it opens PDF and TXT files no problem, but as soon as I attempt to open a Word file or an Excel file I get "There is not enough memory or disk space to open Word" and similar in Excel if the application is not already open. If the Office app is open, the code works perfectly. Has anyone come across this before?

I have a listview with process that are running. my goal is to pass the "path" of the process to a text box when someone clicks on a selection.but my code isnt working correctly, this is what I have:

Private Sub lvwProcBox_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles lvwProcBox.SelectedIndexChanged
Dim pID As Integer = Int32.Parse(lvwProcBox.SelectedItems(0).SubItems(1).ToString)
Dim proc As System.Diagnostics.Process = Process.GetProcessById(pID)

[code]....

and of course the text boxes path changes to a different path if a different selection is made?
