If the users no longer have the files open I've also seen where there's a delay in closing because of anti-virus.

Hi everyoone,
I have a dilemma. I have a 2012 server in a domain and in computer management you can preview who has files open. I've noticed entries like this, which I'm curious to know what they are due to. Thanks for your suggestions and help.

Thanks :)
