Command line utility to force file handles closed?

Does anyone know of a WinXP-compatible command line utility that can
force file handles closed?

Sysinternals doesn't have such a utility (Process Explorer can do it,
but it's a GUI application; Handle.exe can't do it at all). I've found
some utilities that can force handles closed and then also delete files,
but I don't want that. I also know that I can use CHKDSK, but I really
don't want to do that. The Resource Kit utility OH.EXE doesn't offer an
option to force handles closed.

Have you any clue what a "file handle" is? It is a way of referring to
a file being open and in use by an application. It has nothing to do
with deleting or hiding files. Dumbass.

Very helpful replies. Thanks a lot. I fail to see how you get "porn"
out of advice regarding a simple command line util, but whatever. It
must be the first thing on *your* mind...
