Hot damn! Finally. Windows 7 Tells You Why You Can't Touch That File[^] Seriously. I really, really want this feature built-in. :| No really. Stop looking at me like that. I'm not joking.

The feature would be a thousand times as useful if it also had a "close file handle forcefully" button.

What's new about this? I get exactly the same message (well, minus the "Send feedback" link) in Vista. "Your File Is In Use… Demystified"[^]
In other words, it's reliant on applications telling Windows what files they have open. Probably the only change here is that all the in-box applications have been modified to do this.
