File Handle Analyzer

NB.  Unfortunately the tricks that this application relies on don't work with 64 bit processors.  I'm leaving it here as a curiosity!  To find similar applications that *do* work, try Mark Russinovitch's SysInternal's site at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/default.aspx

 

It sounds like an easy thing to do - display a list of files in use, together with the application that's using each one.  But it's one of the trickiest demo on this web site.  Undocumented NT APIs, mysterious hardware structures - they're all here in my File Handle Analyzer

File Handle Analyzer works with NT4, Windows 2000 and XP.


And as usual, all source code is included!


Here's a sneak peak.  See if you can spot XanaNews!:
