The File Is Locked by You

THE PROCESS CANNOT ACCESS THE FILE 'BIN\DEBUG\LIBRARY.DLL' BECAUSE IT IS BEING USED BY ANOTHER PROCESS. BUT IT'S YOU WHO'S USING THIS FILE! THE PROCESS CANNOT ACCESS THE FILE 'BIN\DEBUG\LIBRARY.DLL' BECAUSE IT IS BEING USED BY ANOTHER PROCESS. THE ANOTHER PROCESS IS YOU, YOU DUMB IDIOT, YOU'RE FUCKING UNLOCKING IT! COULD NOT COPY LIBRARY.DLL TO 'BIN\DEBUG\LIBRARY.DLL'. EXCEEDED RETRY COUNT OF 10

A frustrated programmer is shown at a computer while Visual Studio repeatedly reports that it cannot access or copy LIBRARY.DLL because another process is using it. The joke is that the “other process” is the programmer’s own debugging or unlocking action, turning a common build-file lock error into self-inflicted blame. It is used as a reaction to irritating programming bugs and circular technical problems.
