Rename/delate/move failed due to file is opened/locked by xyplorer.exe
Not related to XYcopy.exe
Seems to happen randomly after I did a Visual Filter.

Lockhunter shows "no process is locking..."
but but XY and WE keeps saying the file is locked by XY

Found it!
That's due to XY failed to generate <prop #audio.bitrate> on some wma files.
Reproduce as below:
- Download & Unzip attached file
- Run this sciprt on that file:
Which should return blank
- Now, try to delete that file → "File is locked by XYplorer"
Note that <prop System.Audio.EncodingBitrate> still return proper result.
So, there might be some problem with #audio.bitrate
P.S: even this script return correct result but still lock out the file
echo <prop #audio.length>

Confirmed and fixed. Thanks!

(Turned out it was clever by me to wait some days. I would never have found it from the original posting only.)
