In earlier versions of Windows Installer, the Files In Use dialog wouldn't be shown if WI couldn't find a window associated with the file/app. I think the theory went that it's confusing to ask the user to close a program they can't see running. This can be a problem if you have any programs with hidden windows, like those that normally just have an icon in the notification area.
