On Windows Server 2008 R2 I stopped my service and trying to override the exe file to update it, but it gives me access denied exception. What can I do to fix it?

Is the process still running? Do you have rights to overwrite the file? – Shane Madden Oct 22 '11 at 0:45
Services windows show process as stopped. I do have rights, since I trying to do it under administrative credentials. – Artem Oct 22 '11 at 0:46

The Process Explorer program can tell you which process has a file open. It's under the 'Find' menu.
