CopyFile API Locks New file

Asked by Romans in Delphi Programming Language, Delphi Programming, Delphi Components

Tags: Delphi

Hello,
I am using the following Windows copy function in my Delphi application.

   CopyFile(Source, Destination, False);

The file(s) copied can not be deleted in Windows Explorer - they appear to be locked. Is there anything special about ths CopyFile API that I am missing or is there a way to release the files that were copied.

Thanks
