Yeah there's a Microsoft sysinternals utility where you can drag a file into to fetch that info for you.

Makes zero sense there isn't a >Details in the error notification that tells you the damned process in Windows.

Not only that, but you can actually search all active processes to see which handles they keep references to. Just search the name of your file and it will show you the processes which use it
