If the problem is AV scanners, then they should be opening them properly for this (and since the delete is not failing but is being deferred, I assume it's allowing deletes). If the problem is elsewhere in our code base then we have a different bug.

Most programs open files with read and write sharing but not delete sharing. This applies to Python, except temporary files (i.e. os.O_TEMPORARY) do share delete access. Renaming a file is effectively adding a new link and deleting the old link, so it requires opening the file with delete access. Also, renaming a directory that has open files in the tree fails with access denied (5). _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/steve.dower%40python.org
