175792 2003-09-19 15:27:00 MS Windows and perhaps other o/s's have this nice security feature [well sometimes nice] of not letting filed be moved or deleted when they are open. If i recall correctly from a few days ago i was using spy bot for example it when removing certain items said that a restart would be required because the items were basically 'locked' ie they were open and by restarting they could be removed.

It can also be possible to sometimes close applications yourself so you may not require a restart but this will invariably vary
