    The action can't be completed because the file is open in Microsoft Windows Seqarch...


    I am clearing out my redundant Outlook pst files, merging and/or deleting.When I close a pst file in Outlook, then try to delete it, I get the message above, every time.A user reported a similar problem in 2016. The method services.msc works, but only once. Then I have to go through the rigmarole all over again. How do I close a closed file?How do I stop this happening?

    :)
