Thanks for the reply. I did testing in a clean system, were anti virus/
spyware is not installed. It still gave this problem, in say 1 out of
1000 cases.

By any chance would it be possible that the Windows OS has not
completed writing to the file even after file.flush() and file.close()
is called?

Thanks

Maybe it's a Windows service, eg the indexing service or generating
thumbnails. Anyway, retrying after a delay would still be worth it.
