Microsoft PowerToys version

v0.37.2

Running as admin

  • Yes

Area(s) with issue?

PowerToys Run

Steps to reproduce

I'm not exactly sure. I was unable to rename a seemly random folder because it was locked by an application. Using handle.exe revealed that it was PowerLauncher.exe that was holding on to the directory. It looks like PowerLauncher.exe has a handle to a whole bunch of files. Maybe there is a handle leak? Once I closed PowerToys, I was able to rename the folder.

✔️ Expected Behavior

File handles should not be held by PowerLauncher.exe

❌ Actual Behavior

PowerLauncher.exe holds on to a slew of handles.

Can you share a screen from handle.exe?

It's a console tool, so it would be a text file. I can't repro it right now, so let me close it for now. I'll reopen if I can repro.
