Can't open a untitled notepad file!

A file ended up in "untitled notepad" and when I tried to open it an error report comes up stating "The process can not access the file because it is beimg used by another process." How can I close out that other process so that my file will open??

Hi,

Welcome to the Community. Try right clicking on the file, and rename the file, and then try opening it. I found the below links helpful.

Let me know how it goes.

Thank you.
