Well, first of all, you can see it. I use EditPad to edit text files
etc. and the icon shows a little lock bottom left. When I open the file
in the editor, it warns me about the file being read-only or in use. Of
course, it might be a problem of the editor, so I opened the file in
Notepad. This works, does not give a warning, but when I ask to save the
file, it sends me in a save as dialogue. When I specify the same
filename and after confirming that I want to replace the file, the save
fails.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, it does not solve the mystery. I
installed the tool and used the search option to find references to the
file, but without result. I am not an expert in these things, but I tried
finding references to the file or its folder, etc. in various ways, but it
does not return any results.
Another thing that I observed is that I can rename the file, but if I do so,
the file is immediately recreated.
What made you think it was "locked" in the first place? There's a
Vista/Win7 FAQ that lets users edit administrator-owned files by
silently redirecting them as soon as you make changes, but Apache sees
the original.
