The cause of this is almost always tag alongs. They register with the kernel and get notified when a file is about to be closed, so they promptly open it and then do whatever with it. Number one whatever is virus scanners, but the culprits can also include backup tools, source control tools and various Explorer extensions that like to display status/icons for files.
