That's bad news for me as using Computer Management is not quite the thing
I'll have access most of the time... and I even don't want to imagine what
my coworker will say when I will say that for list of opened files he must
have windows :(

would be more reliable).

I didn't see open files in Computer Management while I had some files open.
But this migth be related to errors I saw regarding RPC timeouts when I was
digging in Computer Management.
