This would only work if the program deletes that file before it closes -
right?

But, if the program crashes or the power gets cut off and the file is
not deleted, then the next time the program opens, the file will still
be there, and the program will think it is already running, when it
isn't.

There is another way to check if an instance is running 
that will work on all OS. When you start the program you 
create a file if it is not already there. If it is there 
then you close the program.

I hope this helps.
