I used the tool you recommended and found out it's nvidia's nview software
that is causing the problem, so there isn't much I can do about it, so I'll
guess I'll make a little script that cleans up the tmp file(s) at startup.
Thanks for the tip though.

You can use OH from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
Type
oh +otl
reboot
then
oh /t file filename
or leave filename blank to see all.
EG to see what program has inbox.dbx open (OE's inbox file)
oh /t file inbox.dbx
which returns

Yes I found out the same thing at work this afternoon, though there the
file
is deleted when word is stopped and the funny thing is that Word is not in
my Windows startup at home, though it's installed on my System. I guess
some
component that is invoked at startup must be causing this.. weird.. The
file
is being created even though Word is not run, must be some office
component.
Is there a decent utility that will allow me to view file locks on XP.

If ~dft????.tmp, it is created by Word.

I like to keep my temporary folders clean and clear them
regularly, lately there's 1 file I can't seem to delete
and of which 1 is added on each reboot. It's in local
settings\temp and looks like this ~df????.tmp (the ?'s
are single character wildcards). Could somebody tell me
what these are, or how I can find out which program is
maintaining a lock on this file?
