I am getting an error after installing Delphi 2007 (Edit: This problem occurs in all Delphi versions from 2006 to 2010) that I can not figure out and have never seen before. After restarting I can launch the program without any problems, but if I were to close out of the program and start again it will give me the following error:
"Cannot create file C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Temp\EditorLineEnds.ttr". The process cannont access the file because it is being use by another process."
"System" has a handle on this file that cannot be cleared unless I reboot. I can also correct the problem by renaming the file before I launch the program.
I have tried reinstalling the program with no luck.
Version installed: CodeGear™ Delphi® 2007 for Win32® R2 Version 11.0.2902.10471. Operation System: Windows 7 Pro 64bit
Update 08/14 13:35 EDT Tried the following solutions, but still having the same file lock issue:
I will try reinstalling Windows from scratch and install Delphi before Windows updates to see if updates are truly the cause. My workaround for now is just renaming EditorLineEnds.ttr before launch Delphi.
There are three solutions to this that I am aware of:
Note: Microsoft withdrew this fix a few days later and issued a new one KB2984615 on 2014-08-27. Unfortunately this did not fix the issue for me. Maybe uninstalling KB2982791 first and then installing KB2984615 might work, but I haven't tried it.
I wrote a simple program, that solves the issue for me:
It uses FindFirstChangeNotification / FindNextChangeNotification and checks whether that file exists and if yes, moves it to a unique subdirectory in %temp%.
The source code is available from sourceforge.
