Step-by-Step Guide: Using PowerShell

PowerShell provides a scripting interface for advanced file operations, including copying and replacing locked files. Here’s how to do it:

1. Copy Locked Files Using PowerShell

Locked files can’t be copied directly while they’re in use. However, you can:

• Use Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) to create a snapshot of the disk and access locked files from the snapshot.

Steps:

1. Open PowerShell as Administrator.
2. Use the DiskShadow command to create a shadow copy: diskshadow create expose shadow=<shadow_id> <drive_letter>
3. Navigate to the exposed drive and copy the locked file using Copy-Item: Copy-Item "<source_path>" -Destination "<destination_path>"

2. Replace Files on Reboot

To replace a file that is in use, the system must be instructed to perform the replacement during the next reboot.

Steps:

1. Use the MoveFileEx API via PowerShell to schedule the replacement: [DllImport("kernel32.dll", SetLastError=true)] static extern bool MoveFileEx(string lpExistingFileName, string lpNewFileName, int dwFlags); $existingFile = "C:\\path\\to\\lockedfile.txt" $newFile = "C:\\path\\to\\replacementfile.txt" MoveFileEx($existingFile, $newFile, 0x4) # 0x4 indicates the MOVEFILE_DELAY_UNTIL_REBOOT flag
2. Restart the system to apply the change.
