Error thrown while trying to publish a package "The process cannot access the file filename because it is being used by another process" .

It is not possible to use a file that is currently being used by another process. Close whatever program has that file open first, before using it.

If the program that is already run is not known, learn by using Handle or Process Explorer.

To solve the issue, proceed as follows:

  • Open Task Manager
  • Navigate to the Processes tab, select the UiPath Assistant [Agent] and end the process.
  • Close the all the UiPath Assistant [Agent] instances and Restart the Robot services.
