Hello,
I really like XYplorer and I have read a lot of pages here, but nevertheless, in some cases it's a little bit tricky for me to work with it, because I'm not that familiar with scripting. Therefore, I would like to ask for a little bit of help.
Sometimes I want to perform an operation (copy, move, or delete) on a folder of files, and there's a file in there that is still in use — and the operation fails because of that.
Is there a way in XYplorer to see which process is blocking the task?
There are tools out there like LockHunter that give me the possibility to check which processes are running in the background and locking files — but I'm thinking more of a button in XYplorer that could do this directly.
Mark the file and click the button that shows me the information.
Given the fact that I don't have scripting skills to implement such a function as a button in XYplorer, I would really appreciate some help with that.
Which process is currently blocking the task?

Re: Which process is currently blocking the task?
No, XY doesn't have an inbuilt tool like LockHunter
Code: Select all
run lax("path\to\LockHunter.exe" "<curitem>");
