C# Function that closes processes which have locked a specified file preventing it from deletion. I require a C# function that closes any processes that are locking a file and preventing it from deletion. Once all the processes are closed the target file should be deleted.

Function must work on Windows XP and Vista

Example code usage,

[url removed, login to view]("c:\\[url removed, login to view]");

[url removed, login to view] function should first create a new thread so the application isn’t halted. The threaded code should then find all the processes which are locking the target file (e.g. c:\[url removed, login to view]). Each process should then be closed without any user intervention (i.e Microsoft Word shouldn’t prompt the user to save the target document etc). Once all the locking processes are closed, the target file should be deleted using [url removed, login to view] ([url removed, login to view]).
